history

prehistory

In the vicinity of Hainstadt remains of a Roman fort ( Kastell Hainstadt ) and a Roman settlement have been preserved. As expressed by the bricks in the coat of arms, the production of mud bricks was of great importance in Hainstadt. The Romans already made bricks here. However, it is questionable whether there is continuity between this settlement and Hainstadt, which was first mentioned in the 12th century.

middle Ages

Today's place goes back to a Franconian settlement. The oldest surviving documentary mention comes from the year 801, a document from the Fulda monastery . In 1287 the place was named Henystad and in the following years Heinstad or Heinstat (1371). Hainstadt belonged to the Lords of Heyenhausen and von Hausen , then to the Lords of Eppstein . During their reign it belonged to the Steinheim office , which from 1371 was assigned as pledge half to the Counts of Katzenelnbogen and half to the Lords of Hanau . In 1393 the pledge came to the Lords of Kronberg . In 1425 Gottfried von Eppstein sold the Steinheim office - and thus also Hainstadt - to the Electorate of Mainz .

Modern times

In 1569 the place was first referred to as Hainstadt . In the years 1631–1634, during the Thirty Years' War , King Gustav II. Adolf confiscated the office of Steinheim as spoils of war and endowed the later Hanau Counts Heinrich Ludwig von Hanau-Münzenberg (1609–1632) and Jakob Johann von Hanau-Münzenberg (1612– 1636) who were allied with him. Since both counts died soon and the Peace of Westphalia was based on the normal year 1624, Hainstadt came back to Kurmainz.

By dividing the Auheimer Mark in 1786, Hainstadt received part of the Markwald . The place remained with Kurmainz until 1803, when it fell to the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt , which later became the Grand Duchy of Hesse , in the course of secularization .

In the middle of the 19th century, the mining of loam and clay in several pits around Hainstadt and the further processing into bricks was resumed.

Hainstadt has been part of the state of Hesse since 1945.

In the course of administrative reform in Hesse was born on 1 January 1977. by merger of the formerly independent municipalities grove city and small-Krotzen castle the town Hainburg .

The rafters of the Eppstein dynasty, the old rulers of the place, should also be interpreted here as rafters , which would combine the two elements of the roof, rafters and bricks. There are no old local seals.
