Centule III of Béarn (French: Centulle III de Béarn; Latin: Centuli Gastoni) was a French noble, a Viscount of Béarn (vicomte de Béarn).[1]
He was a son of the viscount Gaston I of Béarn and his wife, whose name remains unknown in primary sources.
Centule was married to an unknown woman,[2] and their son was called Gaston II, after Centule's father.[3]
Centule was killed by the Lord Lupus the Strong. He was then succeeded by Gaston, his son.[4]
