history

middle Ages

The village was a joint condominium between the counties of Zweibrücken-Bitsch and Leiningen-Dagsburg . In Zweibrücken-Bitsch it belonged to the Lemberg Office and there to the Frogs Office .

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 also the Hanau-Lichtenberg part of Thaleischweiler - 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 - and with it Hanau's share in Thaleischweiler - to there. The Leining share up until 1791 then belonged to Sickingen's .

Modern times

In the course of the French Revolution , the left bank of the Rhine was occupied in the First Coalition War in 1794 . Thaleischweiler became French. From 1798 to 1814, Thaleischweiler belonged to the canton of Waldfischbach in the Donnersberg department .

Due to the agreements reached at the Congress of Vienna , the area first came to Austria in June 1815 and was ceded to the Kingdom of Bavaria on the basis of a state treaty in 1816 , where it belonged to the Rhine District and here to the Pirmasens Land Commissioner , from 1862 to the Pirmasens District Office and since 1939 to the district of Pirmasens , which was renamed in 1997 to the district of Südwestpfalz .

After the Second World War , the municipality of Thaleischweiler within the French occupation zone became part of the Palatinate government district in the then newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate .

In the course of the administrative reform in Rhineland-Palatinate, Thaleischweiler was merged with Thalfröschen on June 7, 1969 to form the new municipality of Thaleischweiler-Fröschen.
