It belongs to the Verbandsgemeinde of Birkenfeld, whose seat is in the like-named town. GeographyLocationThe nearest major town to Schmißberg is the district seat of Birkenfeld some three kilometres to the southwest. Neighbouring municipalitiesSchmißberg borders in the north on the municipality of Elchweiler, in the east on the municipality of Niederhambach, in the south on the municipality of Rimsberg and in the south and southwest on the town of Birkenfeld. HistoryIn 1438, Schmißberg had its first documentary mention in the taxation book kept by the Counts of Sponheim. Nevertheless, various archaeological finds of Roman graves in the vicinity bear witness to settlers here at a much earlier time. Schmißberg belonged to the “Hinder” County of Sponheim. PoliticsMunicipal councilThe council is made up of 6 council members, who were elected by majority vote at the municipal election held on 7 June 2009, and the honorary mayor as chairman.[1] MayorSchmißberg’s mayor is Adolf Schuch, and his deputies are Martin Thomas and Guido Schulz.[2] Coat of armsThe municipality’s arms might be described thus: Argent an anvil, the horn to sinister, and a blacksmith’s hammer bendwise, the crosspeen resting on the anvil, all sable, the chief countercompony gules and argent. The countercompony (that is, two rows of squares of alternating tinctures) chief is a reference to the village’s former allegiance to the Counts of Sponheim, who for centuries ruled the “Hinder” County of Sponheim, and bore arms that were “chequy” (similar, but with more than two rows), while the hammer and anvil are canting for the first syllable in the municipality’s name (Schmiß– comes from the base of Schmiede, meaning “smithy”).[3] Culture and sightseeingBuildingsThe following are listed buildings or sites in Rhineland-Palatinate’s Directory of Cultural Monuments:[4]
