Pierre de Saint-Julien de Balleure (1519–1593) was a famous Burgundian historian of the Renaissance period.
Born in 1519 at the Château de Balleure (Étrigny), this erudite provincial notably wrote a history of the Burgundians, published while he was Dean of Chalon-sur-Saône. De l’origine des Bourgongnons, et antiquité des estats de Bourgongne was printed in 1581 in Paris, "chez Nicolas Chesneau, ruë Sainct Jacques, au Chesne Verd" (chez Nicolas Chesneau, Rue Saint Jacques, at the [sign of the] green oak).
His tombstone may be seen in the church of Saint-Vincent in Chalon-sur-Saône.
