Salm-Kyrburg was a state of the
Salm-Neuweiler
in 1681 upon the lines' extinction.
In 1742, Salm-Kyrburg was raised to a principality; it shared its vote in the
Münster in 1802, which formed the newly founded Principality of Salm
.
The full title used by the Princes of the resurrected state was "Prince of Salm-Kyrburg, Sovereign Prince of
Kyrburg, Rhinegrave of Stein
".
The last prince, Frederick VI, morganatically married Louisa le Grand, with their descendants being created Barons of Rennenberg by
Wilhelm II
in 1917, but were deemed inelligible to inherit the title of Prince of Salm-Kyburg. With his death in 1905, the Salm-Kyburg family went extinct.
