The Peace of Breda, or Treaty of Breda, signed on 31 July 1667, marked the end of the Second Anglo-Dutch War (1665 - 1667). It was a series of treaties between England, the Dutch Republic, France, and Denmark-Norway. The negotiations took place in the Dutch city of Breda, and the settlement reflected the complex political and military realities of the time.

The territorial exchanges, particularly the English retention of New Netherland (including modern day New York) and the Dutch retention of Suriname, had long-term implications for colonial development in the Americas.
