history

The name of the Heinachshof probably goes back to the first name "Hagenahi". This Franconian nobleman probably founded an early medieval settlement here. The ending -ach indicates an early date of foundation. Presumably, the woodland on the edge of the Steigerwald was cleared in the 8th or 9th century during the colonization of the Carolingians and people settled here.

The history of the Heinachshof is closely linked to that of Hundelshausen. It was a forester's house that was already to be found on the mountain ranges of the Steigerwald . This is where the ministerial family of Messrs. Von Heinach or Heynach had their headquarters. They were the hereditary forest masters of the Steigerwald and also owned the castle complex in Hundelshausen until they died out in 1678.

The line with Ulrich von Hainach first appeared in 1303. Just one year later, a Rudger Brustberg was mentioned as the owner of a property in Heinach. The place probably only consisted of a single farm at times, which changed hands more often between 1401 and 1508. In 1602 the facility came from the Fuchs von Bimbach to the up-and-coming noble family Echter von Mespelbrunn .
