Treaty of Anagni

Situation of Anagni

The treaty

the treaty of Anagni , which was only one endorsement with the Traité of Tarascon of 1291, was signed on June 20th, 1295, on the initiative of Boniface VIII, to put a term at the war opposing Aragon-Catalonia to France about Sicily, following the conquest of the island by Pierre II of Aragon-Catalonia, which had involved the Croisade of Aragon. It was worked out by the Pope and the ambassadors of Jacques II of Catalonia-Aragon, of Philippe IV of France and Charles II of Naples, said the Lame one.

clauses of the treaty
The essential clauses were the following ones:
  • marriage of Jacques II of Aragon-Catalonia with White, girl of Charles II of Naples
  • return of the Sicily to the Holy See, which would grant it the Angevins of Naples
  • military aid in Angevins against whoever would try to seize the island (Jacques II had thus to be combined a time in Angevins against its brother Frederic, which refused the treaty)
  • raised papal excommunication against Jacques II
  • renouncement by France of the donation that the pope Martin IV had made with Charles de Valois of the crown of Aragon-Catalonia
  • restitution of the Balearic Islands to Jacques II of Majorque, under supervision of the king of Aragon-Catalonia
  • arbitration of the pope on the Valley of Aran
  • restitution in Charles II of the conquests made by Jacques II of Aragon-Catalonia in Italy
  • exchange of the prisoners and hostages made during the war, of which wire of Charles of Anjou, with the capacity of Jacques II

Two secret clauses were added:

  • transfer of Corsica and Sardinia with Jacques II (although this clause is doubtful)
  • military aid of Aragon-Catalonia to king de France against Edouard Ier of England

Continuations of the treaty

Neither Frederic from Sicily, in which his/her Jacques brother had left Sicily while going up on the throne of Aragon-Catalonia, nor the Sicilians accepted this treaty and continued the fight for the independence of the island against the troops angevines and the fleet sent by the king of Aragon-Catalonia, in respect of the treaty.

One was going to need another treaty, that signed at the time of the peace of Catalbellotta, in 1302, to put an end to the new conflict.
