The office of Ingweiler was an office of the Lichtenberg rule , later the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg , from which it passed to the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt .

history

The later office of Ingweiler was initially part of the office of Buchsweiler when it was formed in the 13th century in the rule of Lichtenberg . Due to the large increase in territory in the first half of the 14th century, the Buchsweiler office was divided around 1330 and the Ingweiler office spun off. At the beginning of the 15th century, the Neuweiler office was spun off from the Ingweiler office.

Elisabeth von Lichtenberg (* 1444; † 1495) was the daughter of Ludwig V. von Lichtenberg (* 1417; † 1474) and one of two heirs with claims to the rule of Lichtenberg . She married Simon IV. Wecker von Zweibrücken-Bitsch . After the death of the last Lichtenberger, Jakob von Lichtenberg , an uncle of Elisabeth, she and the heirs of her predeceased sister, Anna von Lichtenberg , inherited half of the Lichtenberg estate in 1480. The rule was divided and the office of Ingweiler was added to the part of the inheritance that fell to Zweibrücken-Bitsch. However, there was another inheritance in 1570, which also brought the Ingweiler office to the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg: Count Jakob von Zweibrücken-Bitsch (* 1510; † 1570) and his brother Simon V. Wecker , who died in 1540, each left only one daughter Heiress. Count Jakob's daughter, Margarethe (* 1540; † 1569), was married to Philipp V von Hanau-Lichtenberg (* 1541; † 1599). The legacy resulting from this constellation also included the second half of the former Lichtenberg rule, which was not already ruled by Hanau-Lichtenberg, and included the Ingweiler office.

At times there were Lichtenberg , Reipertsweiler , Schmalenthal and Bärenthal ( Amt Lemberg ), as well as the Melcher Hof, the Minzsteger Hof and the sawmill Reipertsweiler, the Schweighof, the Seelhof, the Vixtalerhof near Reipertsweiler, the Leitsalthaler (Leutzenthaler) Hof and the Liesbacher Hof near Philippsburg and the Reinhardshöfe (later a deserted area in the Bärenthal area) outsourced to Lichtenberg as a separate office .

With the reunion policy of France under King Louis XIV , the office of Ingweiler came under French suzerainty. After the death of the last Hanau count, Johann Reinhard III. In 1736, the inheritance - and with it the office of Ingweiler - fell to the son of his only daughter, Charlotte , Landgrave Ludwig (IX.) Of Hesse-Darmstadt . With the upheaval begun by the French Revolution , the Ingweiler office became part of France and was dissolved in the subsequent administrative reforms.

According to a census from May 1798, the office had 4,803 inhabitants.
