Floris of Montmorency

Floris van Montmorency, baron of Montigny (?, 1528 - Simancas, 14 October 1570) was a noble and diplomat from the Spanish Netherlands.

Floris had a military training at the court of his relative Anne de Montmorency, Constable of France.

At his return, Floris became a Knight in the Order of the Golden Fleece with the support of William the Silent and against the wishes of Philip II of Spain.

In April 1566, he was sent by the Council of State with John IV of Glymes to Spain in a last attempt to avoid war.

When Egmont en Horn were arrested in Brussels, Floris was also condemned to death by the Council of Troubles.
