The Armistice of Villa Giusti, also known as the Padua Armistice, was an armistice convention that in practice ended fighting between the Allied and Associated Powers and Austria-Hungary in the First World War. Italy represented the Allies and Associated Powers in the negotiations. The armistice protocol and a supplementary protocol were signed on 3 November 1918 at the Villa Giusti, outside Padua in the Veneto region of northern Italy, and took effect 24 hours later. Because it applied only to Austria, Hungary later signed its own separate armistice at Belgrade. As an armistice it suspended hostilities rather than settling peace terms, which were dealt with in later treaties.
