Münchehofe is first mentioned in a document in Charles IV's land register in 1375/1376. However, experts suspect that a German-populated farming village existed as early as 1180. There are sources that suggest that it was Cistercian monks who first settled in Münchehofe, which establishes the connection between toponym and history. Although the place name suggests a monastic use or possession, there are no documented references to it today. The name is said to be derived from Monkehofe .

Münchehofe belonged to various noble families in the course of the Middle Ages and early modern times . a. the Lords of Storkow, von Krummensee, von Groeben, von Klitzig and Count Lynar . Since the investiture of the door servant Henry Michel 1488 include the Erpetal -Mills of Ravenstein and Heidemühle the village Münchehofe.

During and after the Thirty Years War , the village is said to have fallen in desolation . In 1650 Münchehofe came into the possession of the von Pfuel family . Only with the acquisition of the village by the elector in 1677 and the assignment to the Schatull-Amt Köpenick did an upswing set in again. The brickworks in Münchehofe supplied bricks for the construction of the extension to Köpenick Castle . Münchehofe later became part of the estate of the von Dahlwitz estate owners .

As a result of the Prussian agrarian reform at the beginning of the 19th century, Münchehofe lost lands north and south of Frankfurter Chaussee. In the course of these measures, the Ravenstein mill and the Heidemühle also fell to Dahlwitz.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the municipality of Friedrichsfelde acquired large parts of the district in order to create irrigation fields on the area . The Münchehofe sewage treatment plant was established in this area in 1976 and is still owned by Berlin today. Arable land in the south-east was sold, and the Neu-Friedrichshagen colony was established in this area.

After the reunification , equestrian sport became an important economic factor in the place; There are a total of five horse farms in Münchehofe.
