Stedet Schoonhoven opstod langs floden Zevender, hvis løb stadig kan genkendes i Lange Weistraat. Der lå en borg hvor den nuværende Hofland er.
Schoonhoven blev første gang nævnt i 1247 som Sconhouen. I 1375 og i juli 1518 fandt der store bybrande sted. I 1575 var belejringen af Schoonhoven (1575) under Gilles de Berlaymont i tjeneste hos Hertug af Alva, der dog to år senere gav hele Holland op.
Allerede i det 17. århundrede var der kendte sølvsmede. Schoonhoven har i 2010 stadig en international Sølvskole. Byen er derfor kendt som Sølvbyen.
