2 unusual facts about William of Jülich


William of Jülich

William of Jülich (The Younger) (Dutch: Willem van Gulik (de Jongere)) (unknown - August 18, 1304) was one of the Flemish noblemen that opposed the annexation policies of the French king Philip IV - together with Pieter de Coninck.

An extra incentive for this support could have been the murder of his uncle Walram, Count of Jülich by the French after the Battle of Bulskamp in 1297.
