Het Vogtland is een regio in de Duitse deelstaten Saksen, Thüringen en Beieren en de Tsjechische regio Karlsbad. De naam refereert eraan dat de regio op grond van een beschikking door Keizer Frederik I Barbarossa uit het jaar 1180 bestuurd werd door de adellijke landvoogden van Weida, Gera en Plauen. In het gebied was de Heerlijkheid Elsterberg een semi-autonome enclave van de Heren van Lobdeburg. * Kaart geografie Vogtland in 1350
