history

middle Ages

Today's district was originally an independent village as Imsbach , which was mentioned in 1404 as " Ymesbach ". It was in the Lemberg office of the County of Zweibrücken-Bitsch and there in the Trulben official school .

Early modern age

Count Jakob von Zweibrücken-Bitsch (* 1510; † 1570) died in 1570 as the last male member of his family. The Lemberg office was inherited by his daughter, Ludovica Margaretha von Zweibrücken-Bitsch , who was married to the (heir) Count Philipp (V) von Hanau-Lichtenberg . Her father-in-law, Count Philipp IV. Von Hanau-Lichtenberg , gave the strict Roman Catholic Duke Karl III by immediately introducing the Lutheran creed . of Lorraine, the opportunity to intervene militarily, as the latter had suzerainty over the Bitsch rule, which was also part of the inheritance . 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 Reich Chamber of Commerce, Lorraine was able to prevail with regard to the Bitsch rule, while the Lemberg office - and thus Imsbach as well - was awarded to the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg .

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.

Modern times

In the course of the French Revolution , the part of the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg on the left bank of the Rhine - and with it the Lemberg and Imsbach offices - fell to France in 1794. After the end of Napoleonic rule, Imsbach came to the Bavarian Rhine District . In the course of time Imsbach increasingly lost its inhabitants until only a single farm remained and it was closed to Trulben. Today it belongs to Trulben under the name Imsbacherhof .
