Who was the spiritual advisor to the last French monarch of the House of Valois?
Jean de la Barrière Jean Baptiste de la Barrière (] ; 1554–1600) was a religious figure. He was the commendatory abbot of Les Feuillants Abbey at the age of 19, and founder of the reformed Cistercian order that arose there, the Feuillants. During his life he became a spiritual adviser to King Henry III of France. During 1587 Henry III built a monastery for the Feuillants to commemorate his friendship with Jean.
Grand Chamberman of France The Grand Chamberman of France (French: "Grand Chambrier de France") was one of the Great Officers of the Crown of France, a member of the Maison du Roi ("King's Household"), and one of the Great Offices of the Maison du Roi during the Ancien Régime. It is similar in name, but should not be confused with, the office of Grand Chamberlain of France (French: "Grand Chambellan de France"), although both positions could accurately be translated by the word chamberlain.
