Albigenses
Albigenses (Cathars) Members of a heretical religious sect that existed in southern France from the 11th to the early 14th centuries and took its name from the French city of Albi. In 1200, Pope Innocent III ordered a crusade against them, which caused much death and damage in Languedoc and Provence.
