Henri de Dreux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Henri de Dreux^[1] (1193 – 1240) was Archbishop of Reims from 1227 to 1240. He is commemorated by a window in Reims Cathedral.

He was an active builder, but his local taxation provoked a revolt in 1233.^[2]

He was a son of Robert II of Dreux and Yolande de Coucy.
