Treaty of Paris (1310)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the Treaty of Paris in 1310, King Philip IV of France and the German King Henry VII reached a preliminary understanding.

Henry VII had endeavored to curb France's policy of expansion , which had been going on since the Staufer period . At least he succeeded in easing the French pressure on the border regions, but this led to a conflict with Philip IV. In the Treaty of Paris in June 1310 it was stipulated that still disputed questions should be decided by arbitration courts. After Henry tried to come to an agreement with Philip, especially at the insistence of the Pope, he broke off contact after French troops marched into Lyon (which formally belonged to the empire).
