Biography
Victor Le Bouthillier de Chavigny (1590-1670) was a French politician and clergyman. He was a counselor of state and served as almoner to Marie de Medici then to Gaston, Duke of Orleans. He was co-adjutor of the archdiocese of Tours from 1630 to 1641, bishop of Boulogne from 1626 to 1628 and archbishop of Tours from 1641 to 1670.
He was the uncle of Armand Jean Le Bouthillier de Rancé (1626-1700), reformer of La Trappe Abbey, which he had tried to take over as co-adjutor in 1657, against opposition by cardinal Mazarin.
His library was expanded by Léon Bouthillier then Denis-François Bouthillier before being split between Montpellier, Troyes and the Bibliothèque nationale de France in Paris.
