In 1456 the settlement was first mentioned as a smithy on the lower Schwarza . The current name can be traced back to the name of the owner family Obstfelder, which was documented from 1528. Until 1918 the place belonged to the sovereignty of the Principality of Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt .

In 1922 the Oberweißbacher Bergbahn was opened, which has its valley station in Obstfelderschmiede. In this context, the place was also given a stop at the Schwarzatalbahn, which has been running through the district since 1899. In 1923 the villages of Blumenau , Zirkel, Mellenbach, Glasbach and Obstfelderschmiede were combined to form the municipality of Mellenbach-Glasbach.
