Jacques de Châtillon or James of Châtillon (died 11 July 1302) was Lord of Leuze, of Condé, of Carency, of Huquoy and of Aubigny, the son of Guy III, Count of Saint-Pol and Matilda of Brabant.
The Flemish Count Guy of Dampierre and his two sons had been imprisoned by the French.
[1] The imposition of heavy taxes,[2] extortions by pro-French Flemish nobles[1] and a visit by King Philip to Bruges in 29 May 1301,[3] resulted in angering the local populace.
[2] Jacques fled Bruges,[4] but died a few months later at the Battle of the Golden Spurs in July 1302.
