In 1795, the <a href="/wiki/Lixing-l%C3%A8s-Rouhling" title="Lixing-lès-Rouhling"><i>seigneurie de Lixing</i></a> was also integrated into the Moselle department. One of its first prefects was the <a href="/wiki/Vincent-Marie_Vi%C3%A9not,_Count_of_Vaublanc" title="Vincent-Marie Viénot, Count of Vaublanc">comte de Vaublanc</a>, from 1805 to 1814. </p><p>By the <a href="/wiki/Treaty_of_Paris_(1814)" title="Treaty of Paris (1814)">Treaty of Paris of 1814</a> following the first defeat and abdication of <a href="/wiki/Napoleon" title="Napoleon">Napoleon</a>, France had to surrender almost all the territory it had conquered since 1792. In northeastern France, the Treaty did not restore the 1792 borders, however, but defined a new frontier to put an end to the convoluted nature of the border, with all its enclaves and exclaves. As a result, France ceded the <a href="/wiki/Exclave" class="mw-redirect" title="Exclave">exclave</a> of <a href="/wiki/Tholey" title="Tholey">Tholey</a> (now in <a href="/wiki/Saarland" title="Saarland">Saarland</a>, <a href="/wiki/Germany" title="Germany">Germany</a>) as well as a few <a href="/wiki/Commune_in_France" class="mw-redirect" title="Commune in France">communes</a> near <a href="/wiki/Sierck-les-Bains" title="Sierck-les-Bains">Sierck-les-Bains</a> (both territories until then part of the Moselle department) to Austria. On the other hand, the Treaty confirmed the French annexations of 1793, and furthermore, the south of the Napoleonic department of <a href="/wiki/Sarre_(d%C3%A9partement)" class="mw-redirect" title="Sarre (département)">Sarre</a> was ceded to France, including the town of <a href="/wiki/Lebach" title="Lebach">Lebach</a>, the city of <a href="/wiki/Saarbr%C3%BCcken" title="Saarbrücken">Saarbrücken</a>, and the rich coal basin nearby. France thus became a net beneficiary of the Treaty of Paris: all the new territories ceded to her being far larger and more strategically useful than the few territories ceded to Austria. All these new territories were incorporated into the Moselle department, and giving Moselle a larger area than it had had since 1790. </p><p>However, with the <a href="/wiki/Hundred_Days" title="Hundred Days">return of Napoleon</a> (March 1815) and his final defeat at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Waterloo" title="Battle of Waterloo">Battle of Waterloo</a> (June 1815), the <a href="/wiki/Treaty_of_Paris_(1815)" title="Treaty of Paris (1815)">Treaty of Paris</a> in November 1815 imposed much harsher conditions on France. Tholey and the communes around Sierck-les-Bains were still to be ceded as agreed in 1814, but the south of the Sarre department with Saarbrücken was withdrawn from France. In addition, France had to cede to <a href="/wiki/Austria" title="Austria">Austria</a> the area of <a href="/wiki/Rehlingen-Siersburg" title="Rehlingen-Siersburg">Rehlingen</a> (now in Saarland) as well as the strategic fort-town of <a href="/wiki/Saarlouis" title="Saarlouis">Saarlouis</a> and the territory around it, all territories and towns which France had controlled since the 17th century, and which had formed part of the Moselle department since 1790. At the end of 1815, Austria transferred all these territories to <a href="/wiki/Prussia" title="Prussia">Prussia</a>, making for the first time a shared border for those two states. </p><p>Thus, by the end of 1815, the Moselle department finally had the limits that it would keep until 1871. It was slightly smaller than at its creation in 1790, the incorporation of the Austrian enclaves not compensating for the loss of Saarlouis, Rehlingen, Tholey, and the communes around Sierck-les-Bains. Between 1815 and 1871, the department had an area of 5,387 km<sup>2</sup> (2,080 sq mi).

However, it was decided not to recreate the old separate departments of Meurthe and Moselle by reverting to the old department borders of before 1871. Instead, Meurthe-et-Moselle was left untouched, and the annexed part of Lorraine (Bezirk Lothringen) was reconstituted as the new department of Moselle. Thus, the Moselle department was reborn, but with quite different borders from those before 1871.
