List of French envoys to the Hanseatic cities

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of the French envoys and authorized ministers to the three free Hanseatic cities of Bremen , Hamburg and Lübeck .

history

Hamburg was a Free Imperial City from 1510 , occupied by Napoleon in 1806 , annexed from 1811 to 1814 , from 1815 a Free City in the German Confederation and from 1871 a federal state in the German Empire . In addition to the Hanseatic cities, the French ambassadors in Hamburg were usually also accredited with the Lower Saxony Reichskreis (until 1806) and the dukes and grand duchies of Oldenburg , Mecklenburg-Schwerin and Mecklenburg-Strelitz (until 1871).

Just as there was a Hanseatic trading community in Bordeaux for a time, there was also an influential French trading community in Hamburg for a time. In addition to the legation in Hamburg, there were also French consulates in each of the three Hanseatic cities.
