The Bishop of Reims is a significant ecclesiastical position within the Roman Catholic Church, overseeing the Archdiocese of Reims in northeastern France. This role has historical importance, particularly during the medieval period, as Reims was the site of the coronation of French kings, symbolizing the close relationship between the monarchy and the Church. The bishopric has been held by many notable figures, including Saint Remigius, who baptized King Clovis I, marking the conversion of the Franks to Christianity. The Cathedral of Reims, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is where many royal ceremonies took place, further emphasizing the bishop's influence in both religious and political spheres.
