About Hugh III, Archbishop of Rouen
Hugh III, also known as Hugh of Saint-Denis, was archbishop of Rouen from 942 to 989. As archbishop, he was also the titular abbot of Saint-Ouen. Very little is known about his early life, except that he was a monk from Saint-Denis when chosen by William Longsword. He was heavily criticized by later chroniclers, who mention his inability to resist temptations of the flesh and his spoliation of cathedral property.
