history

Heinersdorf was first mentioned in a document as "Heinersdorf im Radenzgau" in 1071 and is one of the oldest places in the Sonneberg district. The place was founded when the Franks secured their settlement area against the Slavs living north of the Thuringian and Franconian Forests at the turn of the 9th to 10th century .

A brewery was built on the market square around 1600 . During the Counter Reformation , the place remained Protestant while the other places in the area became Catholic again. In the Thirty Years' War the Heinersdorfer support the Swedish troops in the siege of Kronach . The Kronach avenged themselves by burning down Heinersdorf except for the church and the school in 1634. According to an inheritance book from 1660, Heinersdorf already consisted of 34 estates again.

Heinersdorf belonged to Saxe-Coburg from 1729 . In 1735 it was described as one of the best places in the Sonneberg High Court. At that time Heinersdorf had three mills and two markets a year. At that time there was a brisk trade in wood and boards, they were rafted on the Tettau via Kronach and Frankfurt am Main to Holland . In 1781 there were two grinding mills and eight cutting mills in Heinersdorf .

A district road was built through the Tettau valley in 1876, and a stagecoach ran on it every day . Between 1903 and 1952 the railroad ran on the Pressig-Rothenkirchen-Tettau line through the valley. In 1923 the place was connected to the electricity network.

Towards the end of the Second World War , the US Army took the place in April 1945, it was replaced by the Red Army in June 1945 . After the dissolution of the states in the GDR and the establishment of the districts in 1952, Heinersdorf was in the district of Suhl . In 1974, after four years of construction, the local culture house was inaugurated.

The Thuringian state parliament decided on December 19, 1996 that from January 1, 1997 the Heinersdorf community would belong to the Judenbach community . This opened on July 6, 2018 in the municipality of Föritztal.

Border town

Remnants of the wall at the Heinersdorf / Welitsch memorial

Heinersdorf is mentioned in the border division between Wilhelm II and Friedrich I , the landgrave of Thuringia and Albrecht von Wertheim , the bishop of Bamberg from 1417. The location of the village was confirmed by the demarcation between the areas of Duke Johann Casimir and Bamberg Bishop Johann Philipp von Gebsattel in 1601, as well as in 1840 when the border between the Duchy of Saxony-Meiningen and the Kingdom of Bavaria was last established .

Due to the division of Germany , Heinersdorf was on the inner-German border in the 500-meter-wide "protective strip". The Pressig-Rothenkirchen – Tettau railway line, which began and ended in Bavaria, led a section of the Thuringian region near Heinersdorf. It was interrupted in 1952 and the tracks in the Heinersdorfer Flur dismantled. A wall made of concrete elements similar to the Berlin Wall was built on the southern outskirts. Today's state road in the direction of the Jagdshof was the only road connection from Heinersdorf, there was an electric signal fence towards the interior of the country, and there was a checkpoint between the Jagdshof and Heinersdorf. Passage was only granted to residents with a note on their identity card and visitors with a “pass” with the entry Heinersdorf .

The Wall was opened on November 19, 1989. As a memorial, part of the wall was preserved and placed under monument protection. Citizens put a memorial stone and planted a linden tree in honor of Franz Josef Strauss . The monument was inaugurated on November 18, 1990. A former border memorial was set up in the control house built during the fall of the Wall . The memorial is looked after by a support association of citizens from the two border towns of Heinersdorf and Welitsch (municipality of Pressig ).
