The Southern French Nobility
and the
Albigensian Crusade
The Albigensian Crusade was called by Pope Innocent III in 1208 against the
Count of Toulouse in response to the murder of the papal legate Pierre des
Castelnau. The Pope’s aim was to force the Count and other nobles in
Languedoc to take action against the Cathar heretics in their lands, but in the
end, the defeat of Catharism in the south of France was achieved through the
establishment of the Inquisition and the extension of French royal authority to
the area. While some Occitan noble families survived the crusade, others were
destroyed and the behaviour of the crusaders towards the local nobility has often
been regarded as rather arbitrary, unconnected to how these families related to
each other before 1209. This study takes the case of the Trencavel Viscounts of
Béziers and Carcassonne, who were the only members of the higher nobility to
lose their lands to the crusade, and argues that an understanding of how the
Occitan nobility fared in the crusade years must be based in the context of the
politics of the noble society of Languedoc, not only in the thirteenth century but
also in the twelfth.
