The present village was formed by connecting several parts. The core of the village was located above the Vendrynka stream. Then, old settlements (Lideřov and Rybořovice) joined the village. In 1592 Kašpar Borek built an inn in Vendryně and tapped there his own beer. The area of Vendryně is 20,095 km2. Within integration in 1980 the village became a part of Třinec.
