Henrich Dors ( Heinrich Dorsen ) (* after 1590 in Altweilnau , Hochtaunuskreis , † after 1651 ) was a painter and genealogist.

His father was the high school boy Johannes Dors.

He made a map of the Saar region outline over the Glaydtstraß (escort roads on which Geleitherren provide protection troops), on which he traced the old trade routes through the Warndt forest , over the course of which there had been disputes between the Counts of Saarbrücken and Mr. von Forbach, depicted. The card has west up. It shows the connections from Saarbrücken to Metz, which "Strasbourg uff Lützelburg and Brabant, Straß uff Trier, Straß krum Meil ​​called to Strasbourg, Roßbrücker Zwerchgeleyd, Überherrn Zwerchgeleyd, Straß uff Nancy and Niclasport registered". The journey of the Counts of Saarbrücken ended on the outskirts of Metz.

In 1626 he became court painter to Count Johann von Nassau-Idstein . On December 22nd, 1629 he received the order from Count Johann Ludwig von Nassau-Hadamar to transfer the Nassau genealogy from Johann Textor . In 1632 he created the Nassau genealogy book on behalf of the count brothers Johann von Nassau-Idstein and Wilhelm-Ludwig von Nassau-Saarbrücken. A tracing of the tomb of Countess Elisabeth von Katzenelnbogen in the Eberbach monastery is also attributed to him.

In 1635 he married Maria Katharina, with whom he had five children: a daughter († 1635), Maria Katharina (* 1644), Katharina (* 1647), Maria Walpurga (* 1649) and Ott-Kaspar (* 1651).
