Historical background


PICARDY - COUNTY OF SOISSONS - RAOUL I DE NESLE

(1180-4/01/1235)

The Soissonnais was a hereditary stronghold of the House of Vermandois. In the 12th century, the county passed into the house of Nesle. Yves de Nesle (1141-1178) chose his nephew Conon de Nesle (1175/6-1180) to succeed him. Raoul de Nesle succeeded his brother Conon who died in 1180 without posterity. Raoul's reign was one of the longest in the county of Soissons, 55 years.
