Charles and Camilla, the queen consort, are set to visit the European Union’s two biggest countries March 26-31.

LONDON—King Charles III will travel to France and Germany for his first state visits since becoming monarch, Buckingham Palace said Friday, underscoring Britain’s efforts to build bridges with its European neighbours following years of strained relations caused by Brexit.

Highlighting the significance of the trip is the fact that it will be the first state visit by a British monarch since 2015; the late Queen Elizabeth II, Charles’ mother, stopped travelling abroad in her later years. The trip to France and Germany is being made at the request of the British government and at the invitations of the two governments, the palace said.

Charles and Camilla are scheduled to travel to Germany on March 29, where they will be greeted by Steinmeier and Charles plans to address the Bundestag, Germany’s Parliament. Steinmeier will also host a state banquet for the royal couple. This role was epitomized by Elizabeth, who made 121 state visits during her 70-year reign, leading royal historian Robert Hardman to dub her “Queen of the World.”

The French leg of the trip may have a particular significance for Charles, who is said to have formed a close relationship with Macron because of the two men’s shared focus on protecting the environment and fighting climate change.
