WHKMLA : The Reformation in France A.) The French Church on the Eve of the Reformation Ecclesiastically France was divided in the Archbishoprics of Reims, Rouen, Tours, Sens, Bourges, Lyon, Bordeaux, Auch, Toulouse, Narbonne, Arles and Aix-en-Provence. In contrast to Germany the bishops and archbishops of France, while administrating large landholdings, did not have the simultaneous function of secular rulers. The INVESTITURE CONFLICT of the 11th-12th century had been fought between popes and emperors; in France, the king continued to be the decisive influence when it came to the appointment of bishops. The PRAGMATIC SANCTION OF BOURGES (1445) meant the Church of France, while remaining Catholic, reduced her dependency on Rome; the sanction was accepted by Pope Leo X. in 1516. The separation of the GALLICAN CHURCH from Rome in all but in name in 1682 was based on the special status acquired by the French Church in 1445/1516.
