He is known as the father of the modern Olympic Games. He was particularly active in promoting the introduction of sport in French schools.
Born into a French aristocratic family, he became an academic and studied a broad range of topics, most notably education and history. He graduated with a degree in law and public affairs from the Paris Institute of Political Studies (Sciences Po). It was at Sciences Po that he came up with the idea of reviving the Olympic Games." - (en.wikipedia.org 11.08.2021)
