The Trojerhof is one of the oldest mountain farms in Bavaria. It is located above Kiefersfelden in its municipality directly on the border between Germany and Austria . The Trojerhof was founded around 500 BC. The historic buildings with a court chapel from the 17th century have been preserved in their original form.

The field name "Troi" is of Celtic origin, means "Viehsteig" and goes back to the 5th century BC, the time of the Celtic conquest. Already in a ducal list of validity from the year 1140 the property "from the tray" is mentioned, which u. a. had to pay a butcher as oat tax. Also in the Falkensteiner's Salbuch , the so-called “ Codex Falkensteinensis ” (recorded between 1133 and 1193), the Schwaige “Trajen” (Trojer) appears in connection with cheese deliveries to the count and the Aurburg bailiff. In 1240 incurred Salbuch the Wittelsbach Duke I. Ludwig So two is the "Traien" already of "zwa swaigen" Schwaigen talk. The Schwaige consisted of two estates from ancient times, one of which was in the Aurburg court (i.e. in the municipality of Kiefersfelden), the other in the Thiersee area, separated by the Traínsjoch . In a compilation of the Almzinse in the "Aurburger Salbuch" from 1478 u. a. the sub-Alm listed on the even of Trojerbauer auftreibt . In 1618 a "Mihlschlagl on the Giessenpach" behind the "Gfahl" (waterfall) is mentioned, which belongs to the Trojer farmer at the time, Christoph Trainer. When Austrian troops invaded the area of ​​today's Kiefersfelden on December 7, 1705, as a result of the War of the Spanish Succession , the Trojer estate was robbed and suffered 450 guilders damage. In 1738, the Trojans builder Sebastian Krapf asked the authorities for permission to build a new farm on his property. The lordship ( Frauenchiemsee Monastery ) agreed, but the Munich Court Chamber rejected the request before it was finally approved in 1740. This resulted in two houses, but only one was inhabited. Sebastian Krapf died in the turmoil of the Austrian War of Succession in 1743. Experts differ as to which of the two houses is the older. In 1810 the old lordship of the Frauenchiemsee monastery also expired for the Trojer estate and the property is listed in the tax cadastre from 1815 with a value of 1010 guilders .
