The village was first mentioned as Steinvurt in 1245 , when the place was confirmed to the Bronnbach monastery in a document from Pope Innocent IV as a grangie , that is, as a granary or storehouse. In Steinfurt is a high medieval hamlet, on a stone ford the road from Miltenberg to Tauberbischofsheim . The toothed crossbar in the town's coat of arms is supposed to explain the place name ("near the stone ford").
Almost a hundred years after the first documentary mention, on October 27, 1323, a farm in Steinfurt was sold by the Counts of Wertheim to the Bronnbach monastery. At the end of the Middle Ages, Steinfurt belonged to the diocese of Würzburg , both lordly and ecclesiastically as a district of Hardheim .
