history

middle Ages

Schillersdorf was an imperial fiefdom to the Lords of Lichtenberg . It initially belonged to the Buchsweiler office of the Lichtenberg rule when this office was formed in the 13th century. Due to the large increase in territory in the first half of the 14th century, the Buchsweiler office was divided around 1330 and the Ingweiler office spun off. Schillersdorf was added to the Ingweiler office. The reason for the new organization may have been the two divisions that took place in the Lichtenberg House around 1330 and in 1335. When the country was divided in 1335 between the middle and younger lines of the House of Lichtenberg , Schillersdorf fell to the descendants of Johann III, who died early . von Lichtenberg , who established the middle line of the house.

In 1480, Count Jakob, the last male member of the von Lichtenberg family, died, his inheritance and rule were divided. The Ingweiler office belonged to the part of the inheritance that fell to Zweibrücken-Bitsch .

Modern times

However, there was another inheritance in 1570, when the Counts of Hanau-Lichtenberg took possession of the Ingweiler office. The Counts of Hanau-Lichtenberg introduced the Reformation in their county from the middle of the 16th century , which now became Lutheran .

With the reunion policy of France under King Louis XIV , the office of Ingweiler came under French suzerainty.

After the death of the last Hanau count, Johann Reinhard III. In 1736, the inheritance - and with it the office of Ingweiler - fell to the son of his only daughter, Charlotte , Landgrave Ludwig (IX.) Of Hesse-Darmstadt . With the upheaval that began with the French Revolution , the Ingweiler office - and with it Schillersdorf - became part of France.
