Fairly good condition, function has not been checked The Treaties of Tilsit were two agreements signed in July 1807 in the city of Tilsit by Emperor Napoleon I after winning the Battle of Friedland. The first Treaty of Tilsit was signed in secret on July 7, 1807 by Tsar Alexander I and Napoleon, during a meeting on a raft in the middle of the River Niemen. The second Treaty of Tilsit was signed on July 9, 1807 with the King of Prussia, who had already agreed a truce on June 25 after being pursued by the Grande Armée to the limits of his kingdom's borders. These treaties put an end to the Fourth European Coalition's war against France, at the expense of Prussia, which ceded almost half its pre-war territories to states under French trusteeship: Napoleon I gave birth to the Duchy of Warsaw, depriving Prussia of Posnania and Mazovia. The district of Białystok falls to Russia. Danzig becomes an independent republic. The Duchy of Warsaw is awarded to the King of Saxony. Prussia also cedes Altmark, Magdeburg, Halberstadt, Hildesheim, Wernigerode, Eichsfeld, Mansfeld, Erfurt, Minden, Ravensberg and Paderborn to the new Kingdom of Westphalia awarded to Jérôme Bonaparte, who had married Catherine of Wurtemberg. Prussia cedes East Friesland to the new Kingdom of Holland, and Kleve, Marck, Münster and Lingen to the Grand Duchy of Berg. French troops occupy Hanover and the principality of Bayreuth.
