Some traces of Roman settlement can be found in Seeon. Long before the monastery was founded, the district of Bräuhausen was the place where a Martian temple of the Roman occupation stood. The place was first mentioned in 924 with the establishment of the Seeon monastery , which was dissolved in 1803 with the secularization in Bavaria . The monastery church became a parish church. In 1818, the rural community of Seeon was created with the Bavarian municipal edict. In the course of the territorial reform , on January 1, 1980, the three municipalities of Seeon, Seebruck and Truchtlaching merged to form the municipality of Seeon-Seebruck. In the course of the formation of the community, Seeon and Truchtlaching were released from the administrative community of Chieming and Seebruck from the administrative community of Obing .
