Philips Erard van der Noot (1638–1730) was the 13th Bishop of Ghent.

Family

He was born in Ukkel on 6 February 1638 as the eldest son of Gilles van der Noot, Lord of Carloo. He was a relative of the Marquess of Assche. His brother, Roger-Wauthier van der Noot, 1st Baron of Carloo was Mayor of Brussels.

Career

After his ordination, he was made a canon and eventually became Archpriest of the Chapter of St. Rumbold's Cathedral in Mechelen. He was created bishop of Ghent after royal permission of the king of Spain.

In Ghent he erected the chapel in Honour of Saint Amandus on the Campo Santo, and began renovations to the diocesan seminary.[1]

He died in Ghent on 3 February 1730. He is buried in the Ghent Cathedral, in the Choir. His baroque tomb was designed by Jan-Baptist Helderberghe, Jan Boeksent and Pieter de Sutter. He was the uncle of a later bishop of Ghent, Maximiliaan Antoon van der Noot.
