The bishop Maurice of Sully :
Maurice of Sully is original of Sully on Loire. He becomes Bishop of Paris in 1160; it is a preacher and a well-known theologian as well as a prudent administrator that enrich the bishopric. It is what permits him to finance the works of the Cathedral of which he/it launches the yard since his arrival on the Episcopal seat. He is sustained strongly by the King of France Louis VII then by his son Philippe-Augustus, even so Saint Bernard opposes to this imposing project.
To the time where Maurice of Sully hires the construction of the Cathedral Paris became already the capital of the Capitan state. He wishes to benefit some to give a more important position to the bishop of Paris (that depends the archbishop of Sense to this time).
Maurice of Sully died in 1196.
