	Declaration of Pillnitz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Declaration of Pillnitz on August 27, 1791, was a statement issued at the Castle of Pillnitz in Saxony (south of Dresden) by Emperor Leopold II and Frederick William II of Prussia.
		Calling on European powers to intervene, this declaration was intended to serve as a warning to the French revolutionaries not to infringe further on the rights of Louis XVI, and to allow his restoration to power.
		France misunderstood this document thinking Leopold actually was going to declare war, so the French listened to the voices of radicals such as Brissot, who wanted war.
