...Münster, in present-day Germany.

Despite not formally being recognized as an independent state, the Dutch republic has been allowed to participate in the peace talks; even Spain did not oppose this.

Eight Dutch representatives (two from Holland and one from each of the other six provinces) had arrived in Münster in January 1646 to start the negotiations.

The Spanish envoys had been given great authority by the Spanish King Philip IV who had been suing for peace for years.

The parties reach an agreement on January 30, 1648, and send a text to The Hague and Madrid to be signed.
