Kurpfalz
In 1543, the "Amt" area, now described as the Jettenbacher Gericht (“court”), was grouped into the then newly formed Principality of Veldenz-Lauterecken. Also belonging to this until 1697 was Oberstaufenbach. It was then that Electoral Palatinate troops occupied the former Veldenz "Ämter" of Lauterecken and Reichenbach to lend weight to the Electorate's inheritance claims. In the end, the "Amt" of Reichenbach remained with Electoral Palatinate as of 1733.
