The published document, issued from the correspondence of the Apostolic nunciature in Spain, is devoted to the observance of the rights of Catholics to confess freely their faith in Denmark in the 1670s, when it was the country of Evangelical Lutheran Orthodoxy. The author of the document, Niccolo Bargellini, was a former papal nuncio to France and took credits for the fact that a house for conducting Roman Catholic services and a plot of land for a cemetery had been transferred to the French Embassy in Copenhagen in favor of the French embassy. In fact, the chapel at the embassy was ment, and the inflating of his own merits was a consequence of the author’s failure to bring to the French court a set of measures to combat French Jansenism, on which the Roman court of Pope insisted.
Key words: canon law, holy see, proselytism, embassy chapel
