Robert Curthose(1051–1134), son of William the Conqueror, was Duke of Normandy from 1087 until 1106 and an unsuccessful claimant to the English throne. He fled to the court of his uncle Robert I, Count of Flanders, but caused mayhem. At a battle in January 1079, Robert unhorsed King William in combat and succeeded in wounding him. He stopped his attack when he recognised his father's voice. King William cursed his son, then raised the siege and returned to Rouen. At Easter 1080, father and son were reunited by the efforts of Queen Matilda, and a truce lasted until she died in 1083. Stock Photo

After seizing the English Crown, Henry I of England took possession of the castle at Gisors, a fortress of strategic importance commanding the road between Rouen and Paris.

Ten years later, Louis's troops were routed in the Battle of Bremule, in August 1119. Louis met with Henry at Gisors in November 1120.
