The Treaty of Paris was a treaty between Louis IX of France and Henry III of England.

Henry agreed to renounce control of Normandy, Maine, Anjou and Poitou, which had been lost under the reign of King John. Henry was able to keep the lands of Gascony and parts of Aquitaine but only as a vassal to Louis.
