Until the end of the 18th century, Berenbach belonged to the office of Nürburg in the Electorate of Cologne and was subordinate to the Schultheißenamt Uersfeld .

In 1794 French revolutionary troops occupied the left bank of the Rhine . Under the French administration , Berenbach belonged to the canton of Ulmen in the Rhine-Moselle department from 1798 to 1814 . Due to the agreements made at the Congress of Vienna in 1815 , the region became part of the Kingdom of Prussia . Under Prussian administration, the municipality of Berenbach was assigned to the Adenau district in the Koblenz administrative district and was administered by the Kelberg mayor . This went on in 1927 in the Kelberg office and in 1968 in the Kelberg Association.

After the First World War , the area belonged to the French part of the Allied occupation of the Rhineland . When the Adenau district was dissolved in 1932, Berenbach joined the Mayen district . After the Second World War , Berenbach became part of the then newly formed state of Rhineland-Palatinate within the French occupation zone .

As part of the municipal reorganization of Rhineland-Palatinate, the community came on November 7, 1970 from the district of Mayen , which was dissolved at the same time, to the district of Daun (now the district of Vulkaneifel ).
