 Since this time, Reichweiler's Evangelical inhabitants have belonged to Pfeffelbach, while the Catholic ones have belonged to Oberkirchen.Only since 1851 has Reichweiler had its own graveyard.Before this, the dead were taken over the so-called "Leichenweg" (literally “Dead Body Way”; now a rural cadastral toponym) to Pfeffelbach to be buried at the graveyard there.
