Hohenlohe-Kirchberg

Hohenlohe-Kirchberg was a German County and later Principality located in northeastern Baden-Württemberg, Germany, around Kirchberg.

The county of Kirchberg was located between the territories of Brandenburg-Ansbach to the north and east, the Free City of Schwäbisch Hall to the south, and Langenburg (ruled by Hohenlohe-Langenburg) to the west.

It was raised from a County to a Principality in 1764, was mediatised to Bavaria in 1806, and was traded to Württemberg in 1810.

The Hohenlohe-Kirchberg branch extinguished in 1861 and the castle with its lands was inherited by the princes of Hohenlohe-Oehringen, residing at Öhringen and Neuenstein.
