Count of Auxerre
The Count of Auxerre was a noble title in the historical region of Auxerre, located in Burgundy, France. This title was held by various lords and counts from the early medieval period until the French Revolution. The counts played significant roles in local governance and military affairs, often serving as vassals to more powerful lords.
The title is closely associated with the Burgundian nobility and the political landscape of medieval France. The counts were responsible for the administration of their territories, including the collection of taxes and the maintenance of order. Over time, the title became less significant as the centralized power of the French monarchy grew.
