After an annexation by France, during which the area was incorporated into the Lippe department between 1811 and 1813 , and an interim administration by the Generalgouvernement between Weser and Rhine , it became the Kingdom of Prussia through the Congress of Vienna in 1815allocated; there the counts of Salm-Grumbach were raised to the hereditary Prussian prince status in 1816 and called themselves Salm-Horstmar from then on.
