The Treuga Henrici (also: Treuga Heinrici ) is an imperial land peace of Henry VII from 1224.

Its central regulatory content consists in the arrangement of a time-unlimited peace for certain people, including clergy, women and farmers, as well as for certain places, in particular for churches, fields and villages as well as for all roads. In this respect it says in the peace:

1. Clerici, mulieres, moniales, agricole, mercatores, iusti venatores, piscatores, Iudei omni die et tempore firmam pacem habebunt in personis et in rebus.
2. Ecclesie, cimiteria, aratra, molendina, ville infra sepes suas eandem pacem habebunt.
3. Strate omnes cum in terra tum in aqua eandem pacem (et ius) habebunt, quod ab antiquo habuerunt.

In the peace the punishment (burning) of sorcerers , sorcerers and heretics is also ordered at the discretion of the judges. Furthermore, the word murder is used here for the first time .

Heinrich, who was around 13 at the time, during the permanent absence of his father Friedrich II since 1220 under the political tutelage of the Archbishop of Cologne, then the Duke of Bavaria, sought his first own accent of regency with this country peace.

In doing so, he followed the tradition of previous land peace orders, such as the first of Emperor Heinrich IV. In 1103 or the Great State Peace of great-grandfather Friedrich Barbarossa of 1152.
