Details
William the Walloon (date of birth unknown; d. (probably) 22 December 1089) was a Benedictine Abbot who served as the head of St. Arnoul at Metz in 1050. In 1073, he was elected as the Abbot of St-Remi, but faced persecution from the Archbishop of Reims and eventually resigned, returning to St-Arnoul. Twelve years later, in 1085, William allowed himself to be consecrated and took on the role of bishop in the See of Metz, but resigned and retired to the Abbey of Gorze the following year. He was later restored to his position at St-Arnoul by Bishop Herimann.
