In the first Century AD there was a villa rustica in what is now Münchwilen. The modern village of Münchwilen is first mentioned around 1303-08 as Munchwille. It grew out of the farming estate Stein which belonged to Säckingen Abbey. During the Middle Ages the low justice right went the local Habsburg vassal, and the village became part of the bailiwick of Eiken. In 1802 it was part of the Canton of Fricktal, then in 1803 it became part of the Canton of Aargau when the Fricktal was absorbed into Aargau.
Since the Middle Ages, the village church has belonged to the Eiken parish. The Chapel of St. Ursula, which was partly built from Roman stones, was originally owned by the monastery of St. Martin in Rheinfelden and until 1791 it was a small hermitage.
