history
Hain was first mentioned in 1358 as Hayn . Other spellings were Haynow and Haynau . It was dedicated to the parish church of Schönfeld and belonged to the Habelschwerdter district in the Glatzer Land , with which it shared the history of its political and ecclesiastical affiliation. It was parish in Schönfeld, initially subject to the Mittelwalde rule and after the inheritance from 1610 to the Schönfeld rule . This came in 1648 to Michael Ferdinand von Althann , who already owned the dominions of Mittelwalde and Wölfelsdorf . He built with imperial permission from the dominions Schonfeld, Mittelwalde and Woelfel village a primogeniture , which remained until 1945 owned by the family of Althann.
After the Silesian Wars , Hain and the County of Glatz came to Prussia in 1763 with the Peace of Hubertusburg . Michael Otto von Althann established the Michaelsthal colony in 1782 on the Hainer Grund of a manorial farm , which is said to have been a free judge estate in the oldest times , which subsequently became an independent municipality. At the beginning of the 19th century, Hain consisted of a water mill, a Kretscham , nine farmers and 15 gardeners and cottagers . The 177 inhabitants at that time included a blacksmith, a shoemaker and a tailor.
After the reorganization of Prussia, it belonged to the province of Silesia from 1815 and was initially incorporated into the district of Glatz. In 1818 it was reclassified to the Habelschwerdt district , to which it belonged until 1945. From 1874 Hain belonged together with the rural communities Lauterbach, Gläsendorf, Michaelsthal Neundorf, Alt Neißbach, Neu Neißbach, Schönfeld and Thanndorf to the Lauterbach district . In 1939 there were 176 inhabitants.
As a result of the Second World War , Hain fell to Poland in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was renamed Gajnik . The German population was expelled. Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . From 1975 to 1998 Gajnik belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship (German Waldenburg ).
