 In 1799, France dissolved all the old lordships and thereby the Lordship of Reipoltskirchen, too.Within the French First Republic, Relsberg now belonged to the "Mairie" (“Mayoralty”) of Hefersweiler, the Canton of Wolfstein, the Arrondissement of Kaiserslautern and the Department of Mont-Tonnerre (or Donnersberg in German).After the reconquest of the German lands on the Rhine’s left bank in 1814 by Prussian, Austrian and Russian troops, the Congress of Vienna drew new boundaries yet again.
