Marie-Christine de Lalaing
Marie-Christine de Lalaing, or Philippe-Christine de Lalaing, was the daughter of Count Charles II of Lalaing and Marie de Montmorency-Nivelle. She was married to Pierre de Melun, the governor of Tournai. In the absence of her husband, she defended the city of Tournai against the duke of Parma, Alexandre Farnèse, in 1581.
==The defense of Tournai==
In the middle of the 16th Century, the Protestant Reformation garnered a large audience in Tournai, despite the efforts of Philippe II to eradicate the movement. In 1576, France elected Pierre de Melun as governor of Tournai. Having left Tournai to attach Gravelines, de Melun left the defense of Tournai to his lieutenant and to his wife, Marie-Christine de Lalaing. Shortly after his departure, the Prince of Orange was warned that Farnèse would attack the city, despite the coming winter. When the Spanish general arrived in the city, Marie-Christine de Lalaing rallied her troops in a speech: "It's me, the wife of your governor who is now marching into war, risking his own life, in service of his country. Follow my example: I would rather give up my life than abandon my country." She was injured in the resistance.〔
