Peace of Prague (1635)

1635 · 17th century · Part of the Thirty Years' War

The Peace of Prague was concluded on 30 May 1635 between Emperor Ferdinand II and Elector John George I of Saxony during the Thirty Years' War, and most Protestant princes of the Empire soon joined it. Saxony gained Upper and Lower Lusatia, the Edict of Restitution was effectively suspended, and the princes' armies were to unite under the emperor. It failed to end the war, which France and Sweden continued.
