 Bavaria kept the "mairie" system and thus the two centres still found themselves in the "Bürgermeisterei" ("Mayoralty") of Ulmet and even the Canton of Kusel, but now in the "Landkommissariat" (later "Bezirksamt", then "Kreis" or district) of Kusel.The exclave's administrative seat was at Speyer.Only in the latter half of the 19th century was the administrative structure changed.
