César-Guillaume de la Luzerne (1738 - 1821) - French clergyman. On June 24, 1770, the King appointed him to the very prestigious position of Prince-Bishop of Langres. Despite the promotion, he remained a canon of Notre Dame Cathedral and in this role celebrated many state funerals, including that of Louis XV in 1774. La Luzerne took his duties very seriously. He invested in renovating church property, establishing seminaries and holding synods and assemblies. He also became known as an excellent apologist and a clear exponent of the Catholic faith and Christian ethics.
