  • Yes

  • No

  • Only partially

  • He wasn't king then

Answer

No, Frederick III was not involved in the negotiations leading to the Peace of Westphalia, as he had abdicated the throne in 1648, just as the peace talks began. The negotiations and eventual signing of the peace treaties were primarily led by the representatives of the Holy Roman Emperor, Ferdinand III, along with delegates from various European states and religious groups involved in the Thirty Years' War.
