I'm pretty sure that you mean "Roland" here. Roland is only mentioned in passing in the historical records, as the prefect of the Breton Marches. He dies a martyr's death at Roncesvals and is directly taken up to Paradise by saints and angels. The rest of the poem recounts how Charlemagne avenges his death.
