Oberkutzenhausen was a small village that grew up in the early modern period in Kutzenhausen , a municipality in the Bas-Rhin department in the Grand Est region (until 2015 Alsace ).
history
Oberkutzenhausen belonged to the Lords of Lichtenberg . The oldest surviving evidence of this comes from 1440. In the Lichtenberg rule it was assigned to the Wörth office, which was established in the 13th century. When Jakob von Lichtenberg, the last male member of the house, died in 1480 , the inheritance was shared between his two nieces, Anna and Elisabeth. Anna had married Count Philipp IV of Hanau (1514–1590), Elisabeth von Lichtenberg (* 1444; † 1495) Simon IV. Wecker von Zweibrücken-Bitsch . The Wörth office - and thus also Oberkutzenhausen - came to Zweibrücken-Bitsch when it was divided. While Oberkutzenhausen is proven to be part of the Wörth office in the middle of the 15th century, this is no longer the case at the end of the 18th century. It came up in Kutzenhausen.
