'''Guillaume de Nogaret''' (1265 – 11 April 1313) was a [[France|French]] jurist who became the councillor and keeper of the seal to King [[Philip IV of France]], and the [[Mentor]] of the [[French Assassins|French Brotherhood]] of [[Assassins]].<br />
<br />
== Biography ==<br />
<br />
=== Origins ===<br />
The Nogaret family ran a small ancestral property in Nogaret, near Saint-Félix-de-Caraman (now Saint-Félix-Lauragais), from where it took its name.<br />
<br />
Little is known about the youth of de Nogaret, except he studied law at the University of Montpellier, and there became professor of Roman law in 1287. In those years, Guillaume's career is divided between teaching law at Montpellier, and legal advisory services for various clients.<br />
<br />
At some point in his life, he secretly joined the Assassins.<br />
<br />
=== The rise to power ===<br />
Committed to serving the king in [[Paris]] at the end of 1295, Nogaret performed various tasks on behalf of the king. <br />
<br />
It is from this period that also dates his participation in religious affairs behind the scenes first and then to light when, in March 1303, he made a famous speech known by the crimes of Pope Boniface VIII. Sent to [[Rome]] , he will write a report discrediting the pope.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
=== War against the popes ===<br />
Subsequently, in 1303, he tried twice to accuse the Pope of heresy by the King of France, to get what he needed.<br />
<br />
A month later, Boniface died in Rome, still completing the objective of the Assassin. Thus, the successor to the papal throne, [[Benedict XI]] , was installed. Nogaret was sent by the king as an ambassador to the Pope but the latter refused to receive him. He reconciled only with the king of France and some members of the Colonna family, but he always kept Nogaret and Sciarra Colonna, the main instigators of the attack against former Pope.<br />
<br />
A few months after the beginning of the reign of Pope Benedict, Nogaret had him poisoned in Perugia , [[Italy]], where it was established.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
=== The suppression of the Knights Templar ===<br />
In September 1307, a few days after the issuance by the Royal Chancery of the arrest of the [[Templars]] he had written himself, Nogaret obtained the post of the Seal Guard. He prepared for the arrest of the Templars, the destruction of the [[Temple (Paris)|Temple]] and the confiscation of their property, with the help of [[Master assassin]] [[Thomas de Carneillon]].<br />
<br />
In this context, he launched a smear campaign to prepare public opinion. On Friday, October 13, 1307, at dawn, he arrested, imprisoned and tortured several Templars, including their [[Grand Master]] Jacques de Molay. Then he orchestrates their trials by joining testimony under horrific torture and false testimony, fulfilling the plans of the Brotherhood to release [[Europe]] from the Templar's influence.<br />
