The village was first mentioned in 1303-04 in the “Registrum Wratslaviense” as “Ossec sive Andresdorf”. In 1343 it was acquired as "Andrea villa" by the city of Grottkau, with whom in 1344 it came to the Principality of Neisse . The church of St. Simon and Jude is documented for the year 1391. In 1425 the spelling “Andrisdorf” was used. The place was originally a market town, which was destroyed in the Thirty Years War .

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Endersdorf and most of the Principality of Neisse fell to Prussia . In 1786 a school was founded in the village.

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community of Endersdorf belonged to the district of Grottkau in the administrative district of Opole from 1816 . In 1845 the village consisted of 85 houses, a Catholic church, a school, a castle and a farm. In the same year 555 people lived in Endersdorf, 18 of them Protestants. From 1851 until the end of the Second World War , the village belonged to the estates of the von Francken-Sierstorpff family . In 1855 596 people lived in the village. In 1865 there were 12 farmers, 21 gardeners and 23 cottagers as well as a castle, a mill and an inn. The Catholic school was attended by 124 students in the same year. In 1874 the district of Endersdorf was founded, which included the rural communities of Endersdorf and Voigtsdorf and the manor districts of Endersdorf and Voigtsdorf. The first head of office was the manor owner and district administrator a. D. von Sierstorpff. In 1885 Endersdorf had 516 inhabitants.

In 1933 there were 515 inhabitants in Endersdorf and 492 in 1939. Until the end of the war in 1945, the place belonged to the district of Grottkau .
