history

Waidmühlstein in Hayn

For the surrounding area, settlement is from around 4000 BC. Proven by representatives of the band ceramics culture . The place name could indicate a cultic grove at the time of the pagan Germanic tribes . It was first mentioned in a document on March 20, 1143. Like its surrounding communities, Hayn was within the sphere of influence and jurisdiction of the medieval city ​​of Erfurt . It therefore belonged to the so-called Erfurt kitchen villages , which were important for the food supply of the large city and especially the facilities of the Archdiocese of Mainz located there. From the 13th to the 16th century, the cultivation of the dye plant woad played a major role in the village and the entire region. There was a manor that was sold to a hospital in Erfurt in 1485. The place has since been referred to as "Hospitaldorf Hayn", which was not subject to any office. With the Congress of Vienna in 1815, like the neighboring Tonndorf office, it became part of the Grand Duchy of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach . On March 14, 1974, the previously independent community was incorporated into the community of Mönchenholzhausen together with the neighboring towns of Eichelborn , Obernissa and Sohnstedt . Hayn has been part of the newly founded rural community of Grammetal since December 31, 2019.
