 Details are, however, unavailable.Another fundamental shift in the power structure came in 1755, when Duke Christian IV transferred Offenbach Abbey with the villages of Hundheim, Nerzweiler, Hinzweiler, Oberweiler, Oberaschbach and Niederaschbach (now vanished) and also the "Hirsauer Kirche" to the Rhinegraves of Grumbach, who until 1595 had exercised high jurisdiction in these villages.Nerzweiler thereafter remained in the Rhinegraviate until the collapse of the old feudal order in the course of the French Revolution.
