The treaty followed the siege of Montpellier and ended hostilities between French royalists and the Huguenots.

It confirmed the religious tenets of the Edict of Nantes and pardoned Rohan, but reduced the number of Huguenot places de sûreté (military installations) to two: in La Rochelle and Montauban.

This peace would last only two years, as neither the King for the Huguenots were ready to respect its terms.

The brother of Rohan, Benjamin, Duke of Soubise, attacked a royal fleet in the battle of Blavet in January 1625.
