Local history and coat of arms

Heinersreuth was first mentioned in writing as a small settlement in 1396. The coat of arms of the municipality reminds of the lords of Weiher, who can be proven to be the landlords in Heinersreuth from 1464 until their extinction in 1604 and in Altenplos from 1464 to 1549, as well as the lords of Wallenrode , who lived in Altenplos from 1549 to 1728. The former office of the Prussian Principality of Bayreuth , which had been Prussian since 1792 , fell to France in the Peace of Tilsit in 1807 and became part of Bavaria in 1810.

Altenplos Castle, built around 1740 and once the residence of the Barons von Stein, is located in the Altenplos district to the northwest of the city ​​center . The baroque building was designed by the architect Johann Friedrich Grael and built on the remains of a late medieval castle. Extensive renovation work was carried out on the castle, so that the building is in good condition today.

Religions

The majority of the population is traditionally Protestant. The Evangelical Reconciliation Church was consecrated in 1937.

Incorporations

On January 1, 1978, the previously independent community of Altenplos was incorporated. On May 1, 1978, Cottenbach and Unterwaiz and part of the dissolved Altdrossenfeld community were added. On January 1, 2011, part of the Bayreuth district was incorporated.

traffic

The federal road 85 , which is part of the beer and castle road in this section , runs through Heinersreuth . The municipality of Heinersreuth applied for the B 85 to be downgraded to a state road . This should not only be implemented through different signage, but also through dismantling, i.e. narrowing the street, in order to reduce traffic by 70%. This was a controversial issue because, conversely, lanes on the B 85 are being widened elsewhere in order to remove hazardous areas. For this purpose, the municipality of Heinersreuth applied for the B 85 to be relocated to the A 70, which was rejected by the Bavarian Ministry of the Interior because the road was properly classified. The Ministry wrote in its reason for the rejection that relief is only possible by bypassing the location. A feasibility study has already been carried out for this. The result was that a bypass can be implemented on both sides. Because of the 15,000 vehicles that drive through Heinersreuth every day, it can be assumed that the town center is relieved by a bypass.

Heinersreuth was on the Bayreuth Altstadt – Kulmbach railway line . The last train passed through the town in 1973. After that, the line was shut down and the tracks were removed.

Heinersreuth is on the popular Main Cycle Route . The Heinersreuthers are enthusiastic cyclists and work together to improve bike paths. There is a danger point when crossing the cycle path at Hahnenhof, so another cycle path should be built so that the B 85 no longer has to be crossed there.
