Principality of Salm
In 1793, the independent Principality of Salm-Salm (town of Senones and its surroundings), enclosed inside the Vosges department, was annexed to France and incorporated into Vosges. In 1795, the area of Schirmeck was detached from the Bas-Rhin department and incorporated into the Vosges department. The Vosges department then had an area of 6,127 km2 (2,366 sq miles), which it kept until 1871.
