Edict of Milan

edict · 313 · Milan

Meeting at Milan in 313, Constantine and Licinius agreed what Licinius' letter then proclaimed in the east: full liberty of worship for Christians and all others, and restitution of every confiscated church and property. Lactantius preserves the Latin text, Eusebius the Greek — the persecutions' formal end.

Sealing the end of the persecutions across both halves of the empire.

Full liberty of worship and restitution of confiscated property — Christianity legal everywhere the letter ran.
