One of the most beautiful villages-street village Henridorff was founded in 1614 by Henry, Duke of Lorraine, to boost agricultural colonization and host Catholic families driven from Arzviller.
The old canal from the Marne to the Rhine, a string of 15 locks, pass on the territory of the municipality along the railroad from Paris to Strasbourg to 2 km in the valley of Teigelbach and Zorn. In this valley is the hamlet of Hofmühl, former headquarters of the glassware of the Vosges. There is also the territory of the commune of red sandstone quarries and disused colorful.
Community life is an important activity of "village". Many sports and cultural associations give young people the opportunity to exhibit their talents, their expertise. A beautiful room can accommodate a sociocultural public meetings organized by members and leaders during performances by the clubs.
Structure: Henridorff is a beautiful village street, at the very regular structure. The houses are contiguous, perfectly aligned, lined with large usoirs. They form two continuous fronts built, apart from some hollow teeth, over six hundred meters. A row of fruit trees has been planted behind each house. The set (main street and orchards) is in a square. This ancient structure is complemented by strong type extensions pavilion, which grow mainly in the margins of the belt of orchards (both street Côtes Street Stadium). The public space is made up of very large usoirs, mostly grassed and well maintained. They are mostly well preserved, and are still part of the public space: they rarely have been appropriate (through hedges) by local residents. Their exceptional width allowed the development of some trees. These beautiful usoirs, Lorraine village characteristics, must be preserved. Note the relative discretion, and even in places without overhead, freeing perspective on Mainstreet.
Architecture: Henridorff preserves beautiful houses of Lorraine, which traditionally accounted under the same roof, steeply inclined, housing and local farm. They are characterized by a large barn door, beautiful frames and shutters painted sandstone. Some of these farms, which probably date from the 18th century, are almost intact, and in very good condition.
