In general, Catholic Europe and the Catholic monarchies didn't want any heretics in their realm. The persecution started in the Middle Ages with the Albigensian Crusade, who were the ancestors of hte Huguenots, and didn't end until the Huguenots had left France. You can read more about this in a book entitled: 'Huguenots and Jews of the Languedoc'.
