Jean d'Estivet was a Benedictine canon of Beauvais during the Hundred Years' War.
A member of the Templar Order, he alongside Pierre Cauchon had Jeanne d'Arc executed against the wishes of their superior, Duke Philip III of Burgundy. While Cauchon sought to advance his own career, d'Estivet was a sadist and for that reason chose to have her killed. For this betrayal, the Templars ordered Gabriel Laxart to kill both men, and d'Estivet was later found dead in a sewer with his throat cut.[1]
Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]
"Jean" is a masculine French given name derived from the Old French Jehan, which comes from the Koine Greek Ioannes (Ιωαννης), itself ultimately derived from the Biblical Hebrew name Yochanan, meaning "YHWH/The Lord is Gracious".[2] "D'Estivet" is a French family name meaning "of Estivet", with Estivet possibly being a place in France.
