It was signed on Pheasant Island, a river island on the border between the two countries which has remained a French-Spanish condominium since the treaty.

France entered the Thirty Years' War after the Spanish Habsburg victories . By 1640 France began to interfere in Spanish politics, aiding the revolt in Catalonia, while Spain in response aided the Fronde revolt in France in 1648. During the negotiations for the Peace of Westphalia in 1648, France gained the Sundgau and cut off Spanish access to the Netherlands from Austria, leading to open warfare between the French and Spanish.
After over ten years of war, an Anglo-French alliance was victorious at the Battle of the Dunes in 1658 and peace was settled by means of this treaty in 1659.

Hello Andrei,
Remember to open the pictures on a new window before copying the source.
You have to try to write your own text, instaed of copying and pasting from another website. You should add the names of the territories the Hispanic Monarchy lost in this treaty and the other agreements included, for example the marriage of Louis XIV with Maria Theresa of Austria, Philip IV's daughter.
These are my corrections:
