The first written mention of Obořiště was in 1333 in connection with Mathias of Obořiště. The village was divided among several owners; a share belonged to the Vladiken von Obořiště, whose water fort was northwest of the village on Sychrovský potok. In 1372 Venclin von Knín and Obořiště owned a share, the eagle's claw in the local coat of arms goes back to his coat of arms. In 1425 the Hussites under Peter and Johann Zmrzlík von Schweissing conquered the fortress of Obořiště and destroyed it. In place of the fortress, the Wobora mill was built later, today the Nový Rybník guesthouse is located on the square.

Petr Břekovec von Ostromeč, who bought Obořiště in 1508, and his descendants were able to reunite the other parts of the property. In 1550 Sigismund Walkaun from Adlar and Petr Zálužský from Podhoří on Nedrahovice bought the estate, later it belonged to the Lazan Bechinie . In 1641 Jan Vitanovský von Vlčkovice owned the Obořiště manor. He was followed by his son Ctibor and, after his death in 1655, his widow Salomena Theresia Chanowsky von Langendorf. In 1675 Jan Tomáš Pešina z Čechorodu bought the Obořiště estate from Salomena Theresia Chanowsky and encouraged the Paulines to found a monastery. In his will, Pešina bequeathed the estate to the order, which was entered in the land register in 1681 as the owner of Obořiště. Then began the construction of the monastery, which was completed in 1688. The baroque monastery church of St. Josef was built between 1702 and 1711. In 1713 the plague broke out in Obořiště and then spread across Bohemia.

On March 20, 1786, Joseph II revoked the Pauline Order by imperial decree and confiscated its estates and monasteries in favor of the court chamber. In 1789 Franz de Paula Gundaker from Colloredo-Waldsee-Mels bought the Obořiště estate as a gift for his wife Maria Isabella, who added it to her Dobřisch reign .
