These people lost favor after the Affair of the Placards, and the Duke of Buckingham led a failed attempt to relieve a siege of these people at La Rochelle. Dragonnades were sometimes quartered in their homes, and Gaspard de Coligny was one leader of this group. Frederick William protected these people in Prussia with the Edict of (*) Potsdam, which was a response to the second Edict of Fontainebleau. Catherine d'Medici instigated a mass murder of these people in the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre, but they were later protected under Henry IV's Edict of Nantes. For ten points, name these oft-persecuted French Protestants.
