A community road leads to Retzelfembach (km Lich). The place has a stop at the Zenngrundbahn .

history

Finds of tools from the Mesolithic south of Raindorf and northeast of Kagenhof prove a prehistoric settlement of this part of the Zennal. To the north-west of Raindorf im Hardwald there is a burial mound from the Hallstatt period several thousand years younger .

The permanent settlement of this area is likely to have occurred in the 7th or 8th century by Frankish settlers, Raindorf was probably established towards the end of the 8th or beginning of the 9th century. It was first mentioned in a document in 1265 when the Nuremberg Burrgraves bought a farm in "Reindorf" from the Ellwangen monastery . Fredericus de Raindorf (around 1300) and Heinrich Ochs von Treuschendorf (1342) , among others, are known by name as the owners of this castle count's court . The defining word of the place name is the Old High German word "rain" (= slope, sloping border strip). In fact, the village is at the foot of a slope.

During the First Margrave War , Rainberg suffered from a robbery in Nuremberg in August 1449. Towards the end of the Thirty Years War (1618-1648) the place was almost desolate , only two families lived in Raindorf. After 1650 Protestant exiles from Upper Austria also settled in Raindorf, so that in 1667 the place already had eight families. There were at least four landlords at the time .

During the Seven Years' War (1756–1763) a Prussian Freikorps with about 1,800 men moved into a camp nearby and collected contributions .

At the end of the 18th century there were 8 properties in Raindorf. The high court and the village and community rulership was exercised by the Brandenburg-Ansbach municipal bailiff's office in Langenzenn . The landlords were the Principality of Ansbach ( Cadolzburg caste office : 1 courtyard, Langenzenn monastery office : 2 courtyards), the Nuremberg Order of the Teutonic Order (2 courtyards), the Dompropsteiamt Fürth (1 courtyard, 1 mill) and the Nuremberg owner von Holzschuher (1 half courtyard ).

The sale of the principalities of Ansbach and Bayreuth to Prussia in 1791 resulted in a brief administrative change for Ansbach's Raindorf. As a result of the Napoleonic Wars there were billeting again and demands for contributions, and after the Fourth Coalition War , the Principality came to the Kingdom of Bavaria, which was founded in 1806 . As part of the community edict, Raindorf was assigned to the Seukendorf tax district formed in 1808 and the Horbach rural community founded in the same year .

The Zenngrundbahn , which opened in 1872, made further development easier and thanks to the nearby, exploitable clay deposits, the first of three brickworks in the village was built in 1897. A little later there was also the mechanization of agriculture, when the farmers from Raindorf, Kagenhof and Bernbach merged to form a steam threshing cooperative in 1905, bought a threshing machine and built a machine house.

During the Second World War , an air raid in August 1943 caused fires in three barns and stables.

After the war there was another economic change. As a result of further progress, the number of people employed in agriculture declined and in 1971 the centuries-old Raindorfer Mühle closed. A galvanizing plant existed from 1978 to 2014 on the site of the clay works, which was closed in 1969 and then demolished. The Raindorf hazardous waste landfill was created in 1984 from the former clay pit southwest of the town.

When Horbach was incorporated into Langenzenn on May 1, 1978 as part of a regional reform, there was a referendum in which the majority of Raindorf residents voted for incorporation into the closer community of Veitsbronn .

Since the inn was closed in 1995, the fire station built in 1978 by the volunteer fire brigade founded in March 1901 has developed into the cultural center of the place.
