Heinrichsthal is a community in the Aschaffenburg district in the Regierungsbezirk of Lower Franconia (Unterfranken) in Bavaria, Germany. It is part of the Verwaltungsgemeinschaft (Administrative Community) of Heigenbrücken.

Heinrichsthal lies in the Bavarian Lower Main (Bayerischer Untermain) in the Mittelgebirge (hill range) Spessart. It is a part of the district of Aschaffenburg.

Heinrichsthal has the following Gemarkungen (traditional rural cadastral areas): Altenplos, Cottenbach, Heinersreuth, Unterwaiz. The two hamlets of Unterlohrgrund and Oberlohrgrund on district road AB 7 are parts of the community.

As part of the Archbishopric of Mainz, Heinrichsthal passed at Secularization in 1803 to the newly formed Principality of Aschaffenburg, with which it passed in 1814 (by this time it had become a department of the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt) to Bavaria. In the course of administrative reform in Bavaria, the current community came into being with the Gemeindeedikt (“Municipal Edict”) of 1818.

Within the municipal area lived 848 inhabitants in 1970, 892 in 1987 and 934 in 2000.
