Oberelldorf is a municipality in the Upper Franconian town of Sesslach in the Coburg district.
A documentary mention dates back to January 13, 1310, when the bishop of Würzburg, Andreas von Gundelfingen, gave the hay tithe in "ville Ineltorff"[2] to the Langheim monastery. In the 14th century the town passed from the Bishopric of Würzburg to the Lords of Lichtenstein. In the 15th century, the Tambach monastery office took over the whole of Oberelldorf. The place thus belonged to the free monastic villages of the monastery office.

A documentary mention dates back to January 13, 1310, when the Bishop of Würzburg Andreas von Gundelfingen gave the hay tithe in “ville Ineltorff” to the Langheim monastery. In the 14th century the place passed from the Bishopric of Würzburg to the Lords of Lichtenstein. In the 15th century, the Tambach monastery office took possession of the whole of Oberelldorf. The place was one of the free monastic villages of the monastery office.

In 1801 the place had a community shepherd's house, a community brewery and 18 other properties with houses and barns. In 1803, as a territorial part of the Bamberg Monastery, the Langheim Monastery and with it its Tambach monastery office were secularized and became part of the Electorate of Bavaria. In January 1806, Count Joseph Carl took possession of the Tambacher Lande as the imperial county of Ortenburg-Tambach. In October 1806 the county was mediatized. From December 1806 to 1814, Oberelldorf was part of the Tambacher Land and belonged to the Grand Duchy of Würzburg. After its dissolution, the Tambach court was assigned to the Main district. In 1862 Oberelldorf was incorporated into the newly created Bavarian district office of Staffelstein.

In 1875 the village had 138 residents, 67 buildings and 24 houses. In 1925, 114 people lived in 27 houses. 110 people were Roman Catholic and 4 were Evangelical Lutheran. On July 1, 1972, the Staffelstein district was dissolved. Since then, Oberelldorf has belonged to the Coburg district. As part of the Bavarian regional reform, Oberelldorf lost its independence as a municipality on May 1, 1975 and became part of the town of Seßlach.
