The Peace of the Pyrenees — Treaty of 7 November 1659 ending the Franco-Spanish war
A treaty signed on a neutral island in the Bidassoa between the ministers of the two crowns, ending a war begun under Richelieu. Spain ceded Roussillon and Artois and gave its infanta to the king of France: the peace was sealed by a marriage, and the marriage later became a title. (Editorial synthesis)
