French Roman Catholic archbishop (1193–1240)
Henri de Dreux[1] (1193–1240) was Archbishop of Reims from 1227 to 1240. He is commemorated by a window in Reims Cathedral.
He was an active builder, but his local taxation provoked a revolt in 1233.[2]
He was a son of Robert II of Dreux[3] and Yolande de Coucy.
