history

The place name means "high village" in its original form. The place was first mentioned in 1097 in connection with a local nobleman: An Engilmar de Hondorf appears as a witness in a deed of donation to the St. Petri monastery in Münchsmünster . 1120 one hears from a Nizo from "Houendorf", then the local nobility disappears. In 1180 the village came into the possession of the Wittelsbach Margraves of Vohburg . When these died out in 1204, the Counts of Scheyern , also Wittelsbachers, became their successors. In 1326 the benefices of Vohburg and thus of Hondorf were incorporated into the Scheyern Benedictine monastery. Under the Scheyern Abbot Konrad von Tegernbach, the first Sunday service was established in "Höndorf" from 1413 to 1421; In the year of the foundation, a parish vicar complained that he had to read two masses on Sundays and public holidays, one in Vohburg and the other in Höndorf; the Scheyern monastery then allowed him a journeyman priest. In 1434 the Münchsmünster monastery also acquired property in the village. The monasteries gave their fields to local farmers as a fief. From 1552 the place belonged to the Hofmark Altmannstein . In 1621 "Hondorf" came to Hofmark Hinzenhausen . In 1621 the village with its Peter and Paul Church was provisionally parish, and finally in 1804 from the parish Vohburg to Mingelstetten (Mindelstetten). The political community Hiendorf was established in 1818 by the Bavarian municipal edict. In 1840 the Mindelstetten - Hiendorf - Vohburg road was rebuilt. In 1964 land consolidation was carried out.

The population was 94 in 1802, 147 in 1900, 133 in 1961 (20 farms) and 141 in 1983 (10 full-time farms and 8 part-time farms). In 2012 Hiendorf had 184 inhabitants.

On July 1, 1972, Hiendorf was incorporated into the Mindelstetten community.

Local church

The local church of St. Peter and Paul is a Romanesque complex . During a visitation in 1590 it was described as very defective. In the 17th century it was provided with a new choir in place of the Romanesque apse and above the choir with a roof turret with octagon and dome. In 1882 the church was extended by 6.20 meters to the west. The high altar with its two columns dates from the first half of the 17th century. In the altar niche is a painted wooden figure of St. Leonhard from the time the altar was erected; On the side of the altar are Gothic wooden figures of the apostles Peter and Paul, which are dated to the early 15th century. The left side altar shows a figure of the Madonna from the 15th century, the right a figure of John the Evangelist, around 1500. In the choir arch there is a Gothic tabernacle on the left . The ceiling painting dates from 1930.
