. The state road 215 runs through the village (as a connection between the B 101 and Pfaffroda), the district road 8113 connects to Haselbach in the west and the S 207 Eppendorf - B 171 at the eastern exit of the village. The highest point in Dörnthal is the Saidenberg (700.8 m).

The first written mention of the place dates from 1449 as Dorrental , the foundation of the place is assumed for the 2nd half of the 12th century. It is said to have received its name from the chapel of St. Dorothea, which existed here until 1790 and which is said to have belonged to the Osek monastery .
In feudal letters from 1449 onwards, the Freiberg patrician families Wigkart and Alnpecks can be traced back to the village feudal lords, followed in 1501 by those from Schönberg auf Purschenstein , who ruled until 1945. From the beginning there was a manor in the village with upper and lower jurisdiction . For a long time, the areas of Zethau , Helbigsdorf , Weigmannsdorf , Randeck , Hutha and Reukersdorf belonged to its area, which were subject to compulsory payment to the manor. In 1851 these were replaced. With the Reformation in 1539 the place remained an independent parish , in 1572 the first teacher was mentioned. Around 1465 ( dendro ), the 13th century village church was given a wooden fortified floor and thus became a fortified church . Shortly before 1500 (dendro), a polygonal choir - also with a defensive storey - was added to the rectangular nave. During the Thirty Years' War the place was repeatedly plundered and destroyed, many peasants were killed and shot. Part of the population was able to flee into the surrounding forests. Buildings and fields remained desolate for decades and in some cases without owners.
To support mining in Freiberg, the manor mill was sold to the electoral rose and water establishment in 1787 to promote pond and artificial ditch construction , and the Schützenteich was created. The ponds were enlarged in 1842/1844. A public library was established in the rectory in 1893. The connection to the public electricity supply took place in 1914, 1926-28 street lighting was installed, and in 1928 the first communal water pipe was built. A kindergarten was set up as early as 1939. In 1974 Haselbach was incorporated.
On January 1, 1999, the previously independent communities Dörnthal Hallbach and Pfaffroda b. Sayda, the Pfaffroda community was newly formed, Dörnthal and Haselbach became districts of the community.
On May 21, 2004, a friendship certificate was signed between the Grafenhausen community in Baden-Württemberg and Dörnthal.
On January 1, 2017, the municipality of Pfaffroda and all of its districts were incorporated into the city of Olbernhau.

economy
The Dörnthal oil mill , first mentioned on December 2, 1650 , has been producing for at least this year - it is believed that it is even older - and is thus the oldest producing oil mill in Germany. The facilities have been under monument protection since 1993. The Braun Mühle Dörnthal , which was first documented on January 24, 1559 , has had a brewery since 2010.
To this day, there are eleven water-powered mills that ground grain or made edible oil from linseed in stamping mills .
