LONDON (Reuters) -Britain’s King Charles will welcome German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier to Windsor Castle for a three day trip in December, the first state visit by a German President for 27 years, a statement from Buckingham Palace said on Monday.

It will be the third state visit hosted by the British monarch this year, after he welcomed French President Emmanuel Macron in July, and U.S. President Donald Trump in September, trips which helped the UK strengthen ties and boost trade with those countries.

Steinmeier and his wife Elke Büdenbender will arrive on December 3 to meet Charles and his wife Queen Camilla, two years after the monarch went to Germany for what was his first official overseas trip after he became king in September 2023.

Further details of the programme for the visit will be announced in due course, Buckingham Palace said.

The 76-year old monarch has maintained a busy schedule of official engagements while he continues to undergo treatment for an unspecified form of cancer. His diagnosis was made public in February 2024.
