The village of Haindorf is a district of the university town of Schmalkalden in the district of Schmalkalden-Meiningen and is located in the lower Schmalkalden valley in Thuringia.

History
Haindorf was first mentioned in a document in 1335. Throughout the centuries, the village was dominated by agriculture. The former pilgrimage church has been used since the Reformation as a parish church for the villages of Haindorf and Mittelschmalkalden, as well as for Aue and Volkers over long periods of time. The village belonged to the Schmalkalden office of the Hessian Schmalkalden dominion.
Today Haindorf is a district of the town of Schmalkalden. It lost its independence on 1 July 1950, when it was incorporated together with Aue into Mittelschmalkalden.[1] On 1 June 1994, Mittelschmalkalden was incorporated into the town of Schmalkalden.[2]
