François Bonivard
François Bonivard (or Bonnivard; 1493–1570) was a nobleman, ecclesiastic, historian, and Geneva patriot at the time of the Republic of Geneva. His life was the inspiration for Lord Byron's 1816 poem ''The Prisoner of Chillon''. He was a partisan of the Protestant Reformation, and by most accounts was a libertine, despite his vocation.
