In 1025, a Catholic council was held at Arras against certain [[Manichaean]] (dualistic) heretics who rejected the sacraments of the Church. In 1093, the [[Roman Catholic Diocese of Arras|bishopric of Arras]] was refounded on territory split from the [[Roman Catholic Diocese of Cambrai|Diocese of Cambrai]]. In 1097 two councils, presided over by [[Lambert of Arras]], dealt with questions concerning monasteries and persons consecrated to God. In this time, Arras became an important cultural centre, especially for the group of poets who came to be known as [[trouvère]]s. One particular society of such poets was later called the ''[[Puy d'Arras]]''.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Sarah B. Sherrill |first=Encyclopaedia Iranica |title=CARPETS v.
