history

Seidingstadt was first mentioned in a document on February 3, 799.

The Thirty Years War threw the community back in its development. In 1817 there were 234 people in Seidingstadt, compared to 250 people in 2012.

Seidingstadt was hit by witch hunts in 1616 . Albrecht Rüdinger, son of Anna Rüdinger from Streufdorf , got into a witch trial and was beheaded.

Seidingstadt was on the Heldburger Bahn line , which was built in 1898 and connected Hildburghausen with the Heldburger Land. Although the railway line will be dismantled in 1946 as reparations had is the reception building survived the station. Today a railway museum reminds of the narrow-gauge line.

The Seidingstadt hunting lodge , which no longer exists , once belonged to the Duke of Saxony-Hildburghausen . The future Queen of Bavaria, Therese, was born there.

In 1993 the unified community of Straufhain was formed.
