Before 1798 Ennetaach was under the Lower Court of Hessenreuti , one house belonged to the Oberaach rule . In the 18th century the settlement was called Enet-Eich . Ennetaach was always in the parish of Sulgen . The Reformed population has been part of the Erlen parish since 1965. In Ennetaach, a community of Reformed baptismal people was formed in the early 19th century . Ennetaach regarded itself as an independent municipality as early as 1756.

Fruit growing, dairy farming and retail trade were the main sources of income for the inhabitants in the 19th century. Around 1900 a cotton twining mill set up shop which , together with other companies, has changed the social structure of Ennetaach permanently since 1950. In 1990, the second economic sector provided 85% of jobs in Ennetaach.
