Biography

Thierry II of Orléans, also known as Thierry or Saint Thierry, was an 11th-century French churchman who succeeded Fulk I to the episcopal see of Orléans. Appointed bishop against the wishes of the Count of Blois but with the support of the King of France, Robert the Pious, he was later challenged for his proximity to the heretics of Orléans and was replaced by Oury (or Orri) at the start of the synod convened at Christmas 1022 to judge them.
