 In the course of administrative restructuring in Rhineland-Palatinate in 1968, among all the municipal amalgamations was one that saw Eisenbach united with Matzenbach across the Glan.This new municipality of Eisenbach-Matzenbach had only been in existence for a year when Gimsbach, too, the village just north of Matzenbach, was amalgamated.The municipality now bears the name Matzenbach.
