Heinrichsthal is a municipality in the Lower Franconian district of Aschaffenburg and a member of the Heigenbrücken administrative community. It is the highest municipality in the entire Spessart and the smallest municipality in the Aschaffenburg district.

The municipality is located in the Bavarian Lower Main region at the upper end of the Lohrbach Valley. The highest point in the municipality is the peak of Schindershöh at 522 m above sea level (location), and the lowest is at the Lohrbach stream near Unterlohrgrund at 313 m above sea level (location). The Kahltal-Spessart cycle path runs through the village.

In 1636, the name of the master of a glassworks located in this region first appeared: Heinrich Fleckenstein of the glassworks in Wollersbuch. Another master glassworks owner, Jacob Fleckenstein, is also mentioned in 1639. In 1647, Heinrich Fleckenstein's glassworks was located in the Lohrgrund, but it burned down for less than 34 weeks. An account book from 1652 reveals that Heinrich and Jacob were brothers.

In 1664, the two place names "Heinrichs grundt and Jacobs thael" first appeared as location designations. The latter became the present-day village of Jakobsthal. A new stage in the village's history began in 1678, when Heinrichsthal was first mentioned as a village. The first taxes had to be paid for seven houses and ten head of cattle. Heinrich Fleckenstein's initials were incorporated into the Heinrichsthal coat of arms.
