Simon de Montfort
Having burned and tortured his way across the Cathar country of Languedoc, Simon de Montfort was ambushed by a group of Cathar women. I found a wee plaque in Castelnaud explaining matters ...
A stone was thrown. It fell straight onto the steel helm of Simon de Montfort. His forehead was fractured, his jaw broken, his eyes and brains sprang from his head. The Count, fell bloodied to the ground. He was dead.
--- In case you were in any doubt!
