The Locarno Treaties were a series of agreements which were produced in Locarno, a town in Switzerland. They were agreed in London in December 1925. The agreements mainly focussed on the European nations. The main treaty focussed on Germany, France and Belgium.

There was an agreement which set the borders of these nations. It therefore, seemed like Germany was accepting the Treaty of Versailles, as they agreed to the new borders in Europe. Germany also reaffirmed that they would keep the Rhineland demilitarised.
