history

The first mention was in 1232 in the certificate of division of the Würzburg bishop Hermann , in which Ebern was separated from the parish Pfarrweisach and among other things remained "phaffendorf" with the mother church. The next mention followed in 1317 as Pfaffendorf. The place name probably goes back to a clergyman who founded the village or took possession of it. In 1373 the lord of the castle Heinz Humbrecht received the estate and the tithe to Pfaffendorf as a fief from the Würzburg bishop and sold the property to Wolfram von Stein in 1405 . The history of Pfaffenhof was shaped by the lords of the castle in the following centuries. According to a division agreement from 1497 between the Hartung and Heinz von Stein brothers, there was a farm, two cakes , a tavern and a mill in the village . After the destruction of Altenstein Castle in 1632, the von Stein men began to build the east wing of today's castle around 1634. Pfaffendorf still belonged to the district of the parish Pfarrweisach and was subordinate to the office of the Altensteiner Vogtei . In 1703 the Barons von Stein moved their residence from the ruinous Altenstein Castle to the old east wing of the castle. From the middle of the 18th century until 1763, they had the palace complex expanded to its present form according to plans by the Franconian master builder family Dientzenhofer under the supervision of Michael Küchel . The first school was set up in 1793. Classes initially took place in the castle and later in the abandoned courthouse.

Until 1848 a patrimonial court had its seat in the municipality. In 1859, Karl von Stein, the last male member of the noble family, died out, and in 1875, Marie Luise von Stein, the line to Altenstein. Count Edmund von Linden inherited the castle property. In 1862, the rural community of Pfaffendorf , which had been independent since 1818, was incorporated into the newly created Bavarian district office of Ebern . In 1871 the place had 208 inhabitants and 38 residential buildings. The church village belonged to the district of the Catholic parish in Pfarrweisach, three and a half kilometers away . The responsible Catholic school was in town. In 1900 the rural community had 162 residents, 89 of whom were Catholic, and 36 residential buildings. The relevant Protestant parish was in Altenstein, two kilometers away, and the Protestant denominational school in Junkersdorf, one and a half kilometers away.

In 1897 Pfaffendorf was connected to the railway network with the Breitengüßbach – Maroldsweisach railway line.

In 1898 Baron Adolf von Grunelius bought the castle and its lands. He later sold large forests to Junkersdorf and to the Pfaffendorfer Müller and finally the castle to the Institute of the English Misses of Aschaffenburg, which moved in on April 26, 1925 and set up a household boarding school.

In 1925 there were 213 people in 41 residential buildings. In 1950 there were 44 residential buildings with 336 residents in the parish village.

In 1953 the Aschaffenburg Johannis-Zweig-Verein acquired the 20 hectare property and transferred it to the Salesians of Don Bosco to build an elementary school boarding school as a replacement for the Aschaffenburg boys' orphanage and home school that was destroyed in World War II. In 1967 the home school, which had been private until then, was converted into a school for those with learning disabilities and those with educational difficulties. For a new school building, group houses, teacher's apartments and sports facilities, all the adjacent buildings were demolished. The Würzburg bishop Josef Stangl inaugurated the completely redesigned Dominikus-Savio -Heim on May 6, 1974 .

In 1970 Pfaffendorf had 410, 1987 487 residents and 90 residential buildings with 122 apartments. On July 1, 1972, the district of Ebern was dissolved and Pfaffendorf became part of the Haßberg district. On June 1, 1976, the town was incorporated into Maroldsweisach.

On May 27, 1988, passenger traffic was stopped on the railway line between Ebern and Maroldsweisach. Freight traffic was carried out until November 21, 2001. In 2003 the tracks were closed and dismantled.

In 2017, the Dominikus Savio youth welfare center, consisting of a curative educational home with a day care center, and the affiliated special educational support center with the Dominikus Savio School are located on the castle grounds.
