Anne, 1st duc de Noailles

Anne, 1st duc de Noailles (died 15 February 1678), was the grandson of Antoine, 1st comte de Noailles. He played an important part in the Fronde and the early years of the reign of Louis XIV, became captain-general of the newly-won province of Roussillon, and in 1663 was created duc de Noailles and peer of France.

Two of his sons, Anne-Jules, 2nd duc de Noailles, and Louis-Antoine, Cardinal de Noailles, raised the Noailles family to its greatest fame.
