Synod of Rouen

The first synod of Rouen is generally believed to have been held by Archbishop Saint-Ouen about 650.

Sixteen of its decrees, one against simony, the others on liturgical and canonical matters, are still extant.

The synod held by Archbishop Jacques-Nicolas Colbert in 1699 condemned Fénelon's Maximes des Saints.

The last provincial synod was held by Archbishop Louis-Marie-Edmont Blanquart de Bailleul in 1830; for its Acts see Collectio Lacensis, IV, 513–36.
