Nach dem Ende der Französischen Revolution wurde die Familie von der Leyen aus Blieskastel vertrieben, so dass es unweigerlich zu einem Regierungswechsel kam. Unter französischer Herrschaft bekam die Region 1798 den Namen „Département de la Sarre“.
 Im Rahmen der Kaiserkrönung des Konsuls im Jahr 1804 wurde der bereits existierende Brunnen auf dem Blieskasteler Marktplatz durch einen Obelisken erweitert. Im Volksmund ist er heute noch bekannt als „Schlangenbrunnen“. Namensgeber ist das Relief einer Schlange, die das Bauwerk umrankt und aus deren Kopf das Brunnenwasser fließt.
