The paper is the first in a series dealing with the structure of magnetic and rotating neutron stars including general relativistic effects. The geometry of fossile magnetic fields frozen in the highly conductive neutron star matter in a non‐rotating (or weakly rotating) star is studied. § 2 treats the general poloidal field in a vacuum outside the star. The geometry of magnetic fields within the star — whose matter is governed by a barytropic equation of state — is restricted by the condition that the magnetic force density should be curl‐free to maintain equilibrium (§ 3). Numerical results are obtained for a poloidal and a toroidal dipole field (§ 4).
