House of Hautefort

MAISON HAUTECLOCQUE

The House of Hauteclocque is a French noble family established during the Middle Ages by the lords of the fief of Hautefort. Haute fort means "High position", this explains the familial motto: "On entend loing sonner haulte clocque" (One can hear the high bell ring from far away). The family served the King in the crusades and most recently the battle of Fourtenoy in 1745.

This family considers itself to be highly cultured. They are well favoured at court because of their erudition and sense for art. Hauteclocque family have amassed a great fortune through import of luxury goods such as gold, fabrics, sugar and tobacco for aristocratic buyers. They have also had success in making favorable marriages and their skills as mediators are often sought after to arrange beneficial marriages for other noble families.
