Lambert of Ardres (active 1194–1203) was a chronicler in the twelfth-century Kingdom of France, from on the frontiers of the County of Flanders.
[1] By 1194, Lambert was the parish priest of Ardres.
He was related to the Counts of Guînes, for whom he wrote a Historia comitum Ghisnensium, begun around 1196 and left unfinished in 1203.
A chapter of Georges Duby's The Knight, The Lady, and the Priest is dedicated to Lambert's Historia.
