Pfalzgreve
En pfalzgreve var en hög ämbetsman i de frankiska och tyska kungarnas tjänst. Han var konungens ställföreträdare och förvaltare av en pfalz (latin palatium, svenska palats), det vill säga en kungsgård där kungarna alltsedan karolingisk tid brukade uppehålla sig och bland annat utöva sina funktioner som domare.
De flesta pfalzgrevskapen avvecklades senare, men i Sachsen (med residens i Magdeburg) och Lothringen (med residens i Aachen) kvarlevde titeln. Efter år 1400 omtalas dock inte någon pfalzgreve av Sachsen längre. Istället blev det de lothringiska pfalzgrevarnas grevskap som erhöll namnet Pfalz och grevarna av provinsen titeln Pfalz vid Rhen.[1]

Balduineum Wahl Heinrich VII.jpg
The "Seven Prince Electors" electing Henry, Count of Luxembourg as Henry VII, Holy Roman Emperor at Frankfurt on 27 November 1308 (Reigned 29 June 1312 – 24 August 1313). "In Mensa sedet". Pen-and-ink miniature from the picture chronicle of Henry VII (Balduineum). Drawing on parchment from 1341; today at public main federal state record office in Koblenz, Germany. "The seven electors choose Henry, Count of Luxembourg, as King of the Romans at Frankfurt on the 27th day of November." Henry's brother, Baldwin, Archbishop of Trier, won over a number of the electors, including the Archbishop of Cologne, in exchange for some substantial concessions. Consequently, Henry skillfully negotiated his way to the crown, elected with six votes at Frankfurt on 27 November 1308. The only elector who did not support him was Henry, King of Bohemia. Henry was subsequently crowned at Aachen on 6 January 1309. The electoral princes, identified by the coats of arms above their heads, from left to right are:
