AVESNES, Guy d' (ca. 1253-1317)

Birth. Ca. 1253, Valenciennes, Flanders. Fourth child of Jan, lord of Avesnes, and Aleid of Holland. Brother of Johann d'Avesnes, count of Hennegau since 1280, who also was since 1299 Johann II count of Holland; in his name, Guy governed the largest part of Utrecht; his brother Burkhard d'Avesnes became bishop of Metz; and another brother, Wilhelm d'Avesnes, bishop von Cambrai. He is also listed as Guy van Avesnes; as Guy de Hennegau; and as Gwijde van Avesnes; and his first name is also listed as Guido.

Education. (No information found).

Early life. Archdeacon and custodian of the cathedral chapter of Liège.

Episcopate. After the death of the bishop of Liège (Lüttich), Johann von Flanders, on October 14, 1292, his brothers influenced a part of the cathedral chapter to elect Guy the successor; the rest of the canons elected Wilhelm Berthout as bishop; the latter was supported by Duke Johann II von Brabant and by the count of Flanders; both candidates went to Rome; the death of Pope Nicholas IV, delayed the decision and Bishop Guy returned to Liège; he received the episcopal regalia from King Adolf von Nassau on June 20, 1294; during the brief pontificate of Pope Celestine V, the dispute could not be solved; the new pope, Boniface VIII, intervened energetically; although Bishop Guy went to Rome for the second time to obtain the confirmation of his election, this was rejected by the pope, who instead, named Hugo of Chalons as bishop of Liège on December 12, 1295; all official acts of Bishop Guy were however later recognized. Bishop Guy fought in the battle near Hoge Woerd, in which the bishop of Utrecht, Wilhelm Berthout, died on July 4, 1301; the death of Bishop Wilhelm produced a double election to the see of Utrecht, whereby a large part of the Wahlkollegiums of the five chapters of Utrecht and the archdeacon in Deventer supported the provost of the cathedral chapter of Utrecht Adolf von Waldeck, and another part of the chapter decided for Bishop Guy; Pope Boniface VIII solved the complicated situation naming Bishop Adolf von Waldeck on September 1, 1301 as successor of Bishop Hugues de Chalons of Liège, who had been transferred to the see of Besançon, and appointing Bishop Guy as bishop of Utrecht. In Christmas 1309, Bishop Guy received the episcopal regalia from King Heinrich VII von Luxembourg. Consecrated (no information found). In March 1310, he participated in the provincial synod in Cologne; and organized, in the same year, a diocesan synod in Utrecht, where new statutes were issued and the rights of the archdeacon defined. Attended the Council of Vienne in 1311.

Cardinalate. Created cardinal in 1312 at the request of King Philippe IV le Bel of France; he declined the promotion; the king gave him instead an annual pension. Bishop Guy was nearly six years in France and returned to his see only in 1317.

Death. May 29, 1317, Utrecht. Buried in the new choir of the cathedral of Utrecht.
