In 1066, Theodwin ceded city rights to Huy, the oldest such charter to survive from what is now Belgium.[1] On 23 March 1075 Pope Gregory VII wrote to him reproachfully about the lax clerical discipline in his diocese, urging him to leave the Abbey of Saint-Hubert unmolested.[2]
Theodwin died on 23 June 1075 and was buried in the collegiate church at Huy, which he had built, consecrated and endowed with fifteen prebends.[1]
