history
In 1135/1137 the place is mentioned for the first time in a Freisinger document when a Rudolf de Osterendorf appears as a witness . Further mentions are found when members of the Esterndorfer family make donations to the Schäftlarn monastery and the cathedral chapter.
A Hofmark Esterndorf, to which 21 properties belonged in 1671, has been traceable since the late Middle Ages . In 1818 the Hofmark was abolished and merged into the community of Zeilhofen by the community edict of the Kingdom of Bavaria together with the Hochstift Freising- Hofmark Zeilhofen, which was abolished in 1802, as well as other neighboring areas. In the course of the Bavarian territorial reform , she joined the city of Dorfen on May 1, 1978.
Filial church St. Leonhard
The late Gothic church was built around 1500, sponsored by the Preysing court lords at Kopfsburg . The church is in the center of the village (slightly offset towards the railway line). The building has well-proportioned dimensions and has a pent-roof-like portal vestibule and sacristy on the south side. The tower is richly structured with pilaster strips and has a multiple onion dome at the end. On the inside there is a qualitative ribbed vault . The rococo-style side altars and the high altar (with the painting by Balthasar Mang from Buchbach ) were designed by Matthias Fackler from Dorfen , as was the pulpit in the style of 1764/65 .
