Hainewalde was laid out as a Waldhufendorf village by the settlers along the Mandau Valley as part of the feudal German settlement in the east . The place was mentioned in a document in 1326 as "Heyninwalde". The place name is probably derived from the place founder "Hener", "Heno", "Hening" or "Heinrich".

In 1392 the old castle (gatehouse) was built as a manor.

During the Hussite Wars , the Hussites on the Breiteberg, where they passed with their large booty to Bohemia, were attacked by Zittauers hidden in the woods. 150 men were killed.

On September 20, 1546 Ulrich von Nostitz was enfeoffed with Hainewalde. After his death in 1552, his son Christoph von Nostitz (1533 to February 10, 1576) took over the rule.

In 1564 the construction of the old castle took place, which was partially demolished in 1780 and completely in 1845.

After the Peace of Prague , Upper Lusatia and thus Hainewalde fell to Saxony in 1636, although extensive concessions were made to independence and religious freedom. Around 1650 this attracted some Bohemian exiles who increased the population. They brought the hair floor weaving and screen production to Hainewalde and thus contributed to an economic upswing.

From 1749 to 1755, the Prussian chamberlain, Samuel Friedrich von Kanitz, had the New Palace built. It still rises impressively over a terraced mountainside today. In 1778 the Hainewalde property fell by way of succession to the von Kyaw family, who were related by marriage to the von Kanitz family and sold it to the community of Großschönau on March 12, 1927 .

On March 26, 1933, it was occupied by the guard of the SA-Sturmbannes III-102 from Dresden, which set up a temporary concentration camp for political prisoners in which between 450 and 1,000 prisoners were incarcerated and mistreated, especially the Jews . The first transports of prisoners arrived on March 28, 1933. On August 10, 1933, the Hainewalde concentration camp was dissolved again. After the Second World War it was used for various purposes. It has been empty since 1972 and is in ruins. In 2000 the “Friends of the Kanitz-Kyaw Castle Hainewalde e. V. “founded. In 2007, the renovation of the east wing started.
