Cambrai county
The county of Cambrai was established at the end of the 9th century and was given to the Bishop of Cambrai for the first time in 948 and finally in 1007 . It formed the core of the bishopric of Cambrai .
The castle lordship (Châtellenie) of Cambrai , the office of the military commander of the bishop, and the vice-county of Cambrai , the office of the count's deputy (also the bishop) was soon held by the Count of Flanders ( 1020 ), even if he was himself actually represented. The Flemish presence then ended with the assassination of Count Charles the Good in 1127 .
The lordship of the castle was bought by the King of France in 1337 and later given to the Duke of Burgundy .
