Guillaume “Le Bâtard”, or William
Guillaume “Le Bâtard”, or William the Conqueror, transformed the Middle Ages and laid the foundations of a new Europe. We trace his journey from 1027 when he succeeded his father as Duke of Normandy at the age of eight, right up until his death in 1087.
Despite being impetuous, he was a shrewd strategist who turned Normandy into a powerful duchy, feared by the king of France. After the death of Edward the Confessor, William seized the crown in England thanks to his victory in the battle of Hastings in 1066. This conquest made him one of the most powerful monarchs in western Europe and led to some profound changes in English society, as the Anglo-Saxon elite was replaced by Norman lords.
