Henry of Bourbon, who had previously converted, then reverted to Protestantism after St. Bartholomew's Day, took the throne in 1589 as Henry IV, at which time he again became a Catholic. Because of his conversion, Pope Clement VIII (1592-1605) recognized him as King. King Henry IV issued the Edit Of Nantes in 1598 which gave the Huguenots freedom of worship on the estates of their adherents and in the several hundred towns where they were numerous. It even allowed them to fortify those towns as a defense against any future repeal of the edict.
