County of Dijon

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The county of Dijon has been attested as a Carolingian administrative unit since the 9th century . It was conquered by the Bishop of Langres in the 10th century . In 1015 King Robert the Pious bought the city of Dijon and the County of Dijon from the bishop and united them with the Duchy of Burgundy , which in 1032 became the appanage of a younger line of Capetians .

A vice-county, which replaced the old county in the 11th century, was soon limited to the Quartier de la Madeleine and finally united with the growing Dijon in the 13th century

Remarks

  1. ↑ Favier wrongly puts this event in the XI. Century and names Robert of Burgundy , 1085–1111 Bishop of Langres, brother of Duke Hugo I , as the conqueror; there is probably a mix-up with Duke Robert I of Burgundy , who fought for the duchy for himself in a power struggle with King Henry I of France in 1032 .
  2. ↑ Favier; The Quartier de la Madeleine is located in today's Cité Sud; the Église de la Commanderie de la Madeleine, built in 1514 in today's Rue Admiral Roussin 18, was converted into a residential building during the Revolution , only the portal remains. ( petit patrimoine )
