sentences:  With regard to Elzweiler's territorial allegiance, this had the effect of the village sometimes being seen as part of the "Remigiusland" and at other times part of the originally Imperially immediate "Königsland" (“King’s Land”).Apart from the mention of the “Elzweiler Bach” (that is, the Sachsbach) in this 1355 border "Weistum" (a "Weistum" – cognate with English "wisdom" – was a legal pronouncement issued by men learned in law in the Middle Ages and early modern times), the first documentary mention of the village itself is found in a 1364 document, according to which Count Heinrich II of Veldenz transferred the tithes from the villages in the "Amt" of Altenglan-Brücken, and later the "Niederamt" of Ulmet, to the newlywed comital couple Lauretta and Heinrich.This younger Heinrich would later become Count Heinrich II of Veldenz.
