The Office of Lemberg had been an administrative and judicial district of the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg since 1570/1606 . As part of the so-called reunion policy of the Kingdom of France, smaller parts of the south of the office fell under its sovereignty at the end of the 17th century. In 1736 the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg fell to the Landgraviate of Hessen-Darmstadt . In 1798 the administrative district came completely to France, where it was dissolved and transferred to other administrative structures. In 1816 the places of the former office became part of the Kingdom of Bavaria , with the exception of the French places in the extreme south of the office, which had been sovereign French since the end of the 17th century.

history

The area came under the influence of the County of Saarbrücken at the beginning of the 12th century , with its division into the County of Zweibrücken at the end of the 12th century , and with its division into the County of Zweibrücken-Bitsch at the end of the 13th century . Count Jakob von Zweibrücken-Bitsch (* 1510; † 1570) died in 1570 as the last male member of his family. However, since both Jacob and his brother Simon V. Wecker, who had died in 1540, had only left one daughter each, after Jacob's death in 1570 a dispute broke out between the husbands of the two cousins, Count Philipp I of Leiningen-Westerburg and Count Philipp IV. From Hanau-Lichtenberg . Although Philip IV of Hanau-Lichtenberg was able to assert himself against Philip I of Leiningen-Westerburg, the powerful, strictly Roman Catholic Duchy of Lorraine under Duke Karl III made its way through the immediate introduction of the Lutheran creed . to the enemy who had sovereignty over Bitsch. In July 1572 Lorraine troops occupied the county. Since Philip IV was unable to cope with the overwhelming power of Lorraine, he chose the legal route. In the subsequent process before the Imperial Court of Justice, Lorraine was able to invoke a contract from 1302 as well as the fact that in 1573 it had bought the inheritance claims of the Count of Leiningen. In 1604 there was a contractual settlement between Hanau-Lichtenberg and Lorraine. The Lemberg office came to the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg and the Bitsch office to the Duchy of Lorraine.

As a result of France's reunion policy in 1680, considerable parts of the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg in Alsace fell under the sovereignty of France . This also included parts of the Lemberg Office. During the Palatinate War of Succession (1688–1697), the part of Lemberg Castle that could still be used after the Thirty Years' War was destroyed. Since the castle and the village were now without residents, the official seat of the Lemberg Office was moved to Pirmasens in 1697 . Since then, the office has also been called the Office Pirmasens .

1736 died with Count Johann Reinhard III. the last male representative of the Hanau family. Due to the marriage of his only daughter, Charlotte (* 1700; † 1726), with the Hereditary Prince Ludwig (VIII.) (* 1691; † 1768) of Hesse-Darmstadt , the county of Hanau-Lichtenberg fell there. In the course of the French Revolution , the left bank of the Hanau-Lichtenberg county - and with it the Lemberg office - fell to France. In the course of the revolutionary restructuring, this also dissolved the old administration.

According to a census from May 1798, the office had 13,144 inhabitants.

Inner organization

The Office of Lemberg was the most extensive office in the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg. It was the only one that had a "middle level": official rulers brought together groups of villages and were subordinate to the office. That is why the office was also known as the "Oberamt". This organization reflects the traditional office structure of the County of Zweibrücken-Bitsch. During the time in Hessen-Darmstadt, this middle level was reorganized into four sub- offices.
