Parish before the merger in 1967

The place was first mentioned in 1264 as Langenhart . The cathedral chapter of Constance owned goods in Langenhart in the High Middle Ages , which were transferred to the St. Johann monastery in Constance in 1271 . Langenhart belonged to the so-called High Courts from 1460 to 1798 , in which the federal governor held both high and low courts .

The Catholics visited the church in Wigoltingen from 1529 to 1885 and those of Gschmell visited the church in Homburg until 1870 - then they went to the church in Müllheim. In 1761, the Müllheim church order assigned the rear benches to the Langenhart Reformed Church.

At the beginning of the 21st century, the community was also characterized by fruit and meadow cultivation; Viticulture continued until around 1900. In addition, forestry and, from 1985, pig breeding was carried out. A linen weaver settled here in the 19th century and a cobbler in 1862 . Langenhart was for a long time the smallest local church in Thurgau.
