Peace of Bautzen

The Peace of Bautzen, concluded in 1018, was a treaty between German King Henry II and Polish King Bolesław I. This agreement marked a significant point in the territorial disputes between the two rulers. Under the terms of the treaty, Bolesław I retained control of Lusatia and Misnia, while Henry II secured Bohemia. This treaty was a result of a series of wars between the two monarchs that lasted until 1018. The city of Bautzen itself has a long history, originally a Slavic settlement, it became German in 1033 and later passed to Bohemia and then Saxony.12
