They seem awfully old - wouldn't they have lapsed at least in periods
when Luxembourg ceased to exist? What would have "resurrected" the
condominium when Luxembourg regained its sovereignty?

In particular, the Treaty of Versailles Artile 40 returned sovereignty
to Luxembourg and forced Germany to forego any rights it had that
stemmed from certain treaties, the oldest of which is 1842, to
recognize any agreements that the associated states imposed on Germany
with respect to Luxembourg and to honor any rights and privileges
with respect to commerce, transport and air traffic that the treaty
covers. It makes no mention of its continuing to have any rights to
share sovereignty over the river. There must have been something that
came later than 1919 that established or re-established this condominium.
