The rule of Hattweiler was a small territory of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation , which included the two present-day places Jägersburg and Kleinottweiler . First documented in the 14th century and duplex in the 16th century , it fell to Pfalz-Zweibrücken in 1590 .

history

Details about the division of the rule of Hattweiler could not be determined. Count Walram II von Zweibrücken sold the villages of Dirmingen , Breitenbach , Kleinottweiler ( Adewilre ) and Jägersburg ( Hatwilre ) with high and low court to the two Jews Daniels von Trier and Aaron von Wittlich in 1337 and reserved the repurchase for 8 years. When his son, Count Eberhard II von Zweibrücken, died in 1394 without a physical heir, the Electoral Palatinate claimed to have feudal sovereignty over its allodies and enfeoffed the house of Zweibrücken-Bitsch , who were entitled to inheritance, with the rule of Hattweiler in 1395. These pledged the rule to Nassau-Saarbrücken as early as 1400 . The rulership changed hands repeatedly in the following years, partly as pledge, partly as fiefdom, and belonged to the Breder von Hohenstein in the 16th century . A description of the boundaries of the rule Hattweiler can be found in the state description of the offices of Zweibrücken and Kirkel by the geographer Tilemann Stella in 1564. At that time, the rule included the two villages Jägersburg ( Hattweiler ) and Kleinottweiler ( Adweiler ) and was a two-man community of Pfalz-Zweibrücken and the Breder von Hohenstein. After the male line of the Counts of Zweibrücken-Bitsch died out in 1570, rule came to the von Steinkallenfels family as a female inheritance . Hattweiler sold it in 1587 to Johann von Warsberg , who sold it to Count Palatine Johann I von Pfalz-Zweibrücken in 1590 .

memory

Count Palatine Johann (actually Hans ) renamed Hattweiler to Hansweiler . The memory of the name and rule of Hattweiler soon faded. Today, the stump of an old oak near Kleinottweiler, the "thick oak" , is still reminiscent of the former rule . It was described as a border mark between the rule of Hattweiler and Pfalz-Zweibrücken in 1564. Shield and tournament collar from the coat of arms of the local lords Breder von Hohenstein were included in the newly created coat of arms of the former municipality of Jägersburg in the 20th century, while the newly created coat of arms of the former community of Kleinottweiler used the tournament collar of the local lords Breder von Hohenstein together with the (still vital) "Thick oak" shows.
