Zinzen is probably just s variant of Zinsen, tribute, taxes, rent. It's also a surname by itself.

Thanks! So, Zinzendorf would be the village's tax collector?

No Zinzendorf is a particular village. Why I don't know. It was built as rental housing, it was given as tribute, it was a tax collection point for travelers, no idea why. There's almost no information on it other than the name and location.
