ゾンホーフェン条約

ゾンホーフェン条約（ゾンホーフェンじょうやく、英語: Treaty of Zonhoven）は1833年 11月18日にゾンホーフェン（英語版）で締結された、ベルギー王国とオランダ王国の間の条約。

1833年5月21日のロンドン会議ではスヘルデ川とマース川の自由航行が合意されたが、拘束力のある条約は締結されず、ベルギーは未払いだったスヘルデ川の通行料があった。そのため、ゾンホーフェン条約で改めてマース川の通行に関する二国間の規制が定められた^[1]。条約はオランダとベルギーの関係改善につながった。

By the Convention of London (May 21, 1833) it was agreed, that pending the drawing up of a definitive treaty, there should be no renewal of hostilities with Belgium, and that navigation on the Scheldt and Meuse should be entirely free and open. [King] William [of the Netherlands], however, obstinately refused to recognize the independence of Belgium under the conditions of the 24 Articles; and the Convention of London was really nothing more than a maintenance of the status quo, Belgium remaining as before in possession of Luxembourg (except the fortress) and of Limburg without Maestricht [sic]. The navigation of the Scheldt was still subject to dues paid to Holland [sic], while that of the Meuse was regulated by a special convention signed at Zonhoven in Limburg, November 18, 1833.
