The place was mentioned around 1400 in the Salbuch of the Seeon monastery . Steinkirchen was originally the name of a remote farm with the parish church of St. Peter in Rohrdorf . Around 1824 the farm was inhabited by a family of ten. The place name was then taken over by the municipality of Steinkirchen, which in 1843 consisted of 46 houses with 47 families and around 300 inhabitants.

In 1969, a referendum was carried out in Steinkirchen, Roßholzen , Grainbach and Törwang to decide whether the four previously independent communities should be merged into a single community with an administrative seat in Törwang. 88% of the voters decided in favor of this project, and on January 1, 1970, the new municipality of Samerberg was formed by merging Roßholzen, Grainbach, Steinkirchen and Törwang. Since then, Steinkirchen has been part of Samerberg's municipality.

Before the merger, the following places belonged to Steinkirchen:
