Enderlin is a city in Cass and Ransom counties in the State of North Dakota. The population was 881 at the 2020 census.




History


Enderlin was founded in 1891. One of the oldest buildings in town, the Robert Lindemann House, was built in 1913 and is on the National Register of Historic Places.
Local folklore suggests the name is derived from the semi-German "End der Line" ("end of the line"), as the city was briefly the terminus of the Soo Line Railroad's main line through North Dakota. Another explanation is that the name was suggested by the wife of a Soo Line official and comes from a fictional character in a book.
