Description

Les douves du château des Ducs de Bretagne.

Si ces studieuses étudiantes savaient que non loin de la, le 26 octobre 1440, le plus grand criminel de son époque fut pendu et brûlé, les douves du château de Nantes leurs paraîtraient plus inquiétantes.

Gilles de Montmorency-Laval, connu surtout sous le nom de Gilles de Rais né en 1404 au château de Machecoul, fut d'abord compagnon d'armes de Jeanne d'Arc. Il sera un héros de la guerre de Cent Ans. Suite a un différent avec l'Eglise, celle-ci lance une procédure pour enquêter sur des rumeurs. Gilles de Rais est arrêté le 15 septembre 1540 pour un prétexte bénin, mais le 8 octobre, il découvre devant le tribunal de l'inquisition la véritable accusation : sodomie, assassinat, sorcellerie.Il est enfermé au château de Nantes. L'accusation lui reproche 140 meurtres, principalement des enfants. Le maréchal Gilles de Rais ne laissa qu'une fille, Marie de Montmorency-Laval qui mourût sans enfants.


If these studious student knew that not far from, October 26, 1440, the biggest criminal of his time was hanged and burned the castle moat of their Nantes seem more disturbing.

Following a dispute with the Church, it is launching a procedure to investigate the rumors. Gilles de Rais was arrested September 15, 1540 for a slight excuse, but on October 8, he discovered in the court of the Inquisition, the real indictment, sodomy, murder, witchcraft. He is locked in the castle of Nantes. The indictment accuses him 140 murders, mostly children.
