Gervais de Château-du-Loir (1007 - 1067) was a French nobleman, bishop, and a powerful figure of his time in Northern France. He was Bishop of Le Mans from 1036 and Archbishop of Reims from 1055.
His father was Aimon de Château-du-Loir,[1] whilst his mother was Hildeburge de Bellême, daughter of Yves de Bellême.[2] His maternal uncle, Avesgaud de Bellême, Bishop of Le Mans,[3] raised Gervais and groomed him to succeed to the Bishopric of Le Mans.[1] He was a strong supporter of the family of Blois, and opposed to the Angevins. At one point, he had to seek refuge at the court of William, Duke of Normandy.[4] Henry I appointed him Archbishop of Reims in 1055.[1] As Archbishop, he crowned Philip I of France in 1059. Philip's father, Henry I of France, was then alive but died in 1060. Gervais was then regent with Baldwin V, Count of Flanders until 1066.[1] Gervais died in 1067 and was buried in Reims Cathedral.[1]
