Pey Berland was a 15th-century archbishop of Bordeaux who served during the final stages of the Hundred Years' War. Born in the hamlet of Saint-Raphael, he rose through the ecclesiastical ranks after studying canon law in Toulouse and serving as a secretary to Cardinal Francesco Uguccione. He held his archiepiscopal office from 1430 until his retirement in 1456, navigating the complex political shifts as Bordeaux transitioned from English to French control. He is remembered as a significant patron of education and architecture in the Gascony region.
