History

The first written mention of Jindřichovice is in a deed of Pope Gregory X from 1273.[2]

Until 1918, Heinrichsgrün was part of the Austrian monarchy (Austria side after the compromise of 1867), in the Graslitz (Kraslice) district, one of the 94 Bezirkshauptmannschaften in Bohemia.[3]

In 1938, it was annexed by Nazi Germany following Munich Agreement and administered as a part of Reichsgau Sudetenland. The German-speaking population was expelled in 1945 according the Beneš decrees and partially replaced by citizens of Czechoslovakia.
