 In 1401, the parish of Reipoltskirchen belonged to the rural chapter of Münsterappel.Among Wolfgang's (d. 1538) and Katharina von Rappoltstein's issue was Johannes (or Johann) II, who as a young knight led Franz von Sickingen’s army for a time.By exchange in 1553 with Waldgrave-Rhinegrave Philipp Franz von Daun he acquired against the faraway village of Hochstätten in the Alsenz valley the nearer villages of Nußbach and Schönborn, along with a half share in the village of Rudolphskirchen.
