history

The earliest written document is from 889 and is "Obrinindorf".

Originally located in the eastern part of the Duchy of Bavaria, the place belonged to the Duchy of Austria since the 12th century. Since 1490 it has been assigned to the Principality of Austria ob der Enns .

During the Napoleonic Wars , the Austrian-Bavarian border temporarily ran through the municipality.

Since 1918 the place belongs to the federal state of Upper Austria. After the annexation of Austria to the German Reich on March 13, 1938, the place belonged to the Gau Oberdonau . After 1945 the restoration of Upper Austria took place.

The community was part of the Schwanenstadt judicial district until the end of 2004 and became part of the Vöcklabruck judicial district on January 1, 2005.

For cost reasons, Oberndorf has joined forces with the neighboring communities of Pitzenberg , Pühret and Rutzenham to form an administrative community. The joint municipal office is in Oberndorf. In the course of this cooperation, a joint building yard for the four communities was also built, which is housed in Rutzenham. On the basis of an initiative review of the savings potential, the State Audit Office recommended in 2015 that the four municipalities should be merged.
