Champagne. The fief of Château-Porcien, located in the Ardennes,
became the possession of Philip IV through his marriage to Jeanne,

here. Through this marriage, the province of Champagne became part of
France. The king wanted to establish a royal provost, so in January
1289, he exchanged the countship of Porcien, Rozoy, and Gandelu, which
had been given to Châtillon, with the domain of Châtillon-sur-Marne,
as well as the châtellenie of Crécy-en-Brie, that of CrèvecÅ"ur,
and a fief on the side of Roucy. Châtillon kept the lordship of the
castle of Châtillon, which was reserved for him and his
descendants.In 1291, Châtillon pushed back the army of Count Henry
III of Bar, son-in-law of Edward I of England. He fought the English
in Guyenne in 1296. In 1302, during the conflict between Pope Boniface
VIII and Philip IV, Châtillon tried to convince the nobility that the
king of France is only accountable to God. Gaucher V de Châtillon Top Movies & Young Movies
