The Weininger Chapel St. Niklaus was first mentioned in 1486. Weiningen was part of the church in Pfyn until 1992, but was provided by the Catholic priest of Hüttwilen during the Reformation from 1529 to 1567. It has been an independent parish since 1993 .

In addition to cultivating fields, meadows and fruit, Weiningen also cultivated wine until the end of the 19th century, which had to be stopped due to phylloxera . In the 19th century, cattle and dairy farming were added. The place received a cheese dairy in 1883 and a low-stem orchard in 1958. From 1979 to 2000 a goods improvement was carried out. Construction companies, a concrete plant and a carpentry shop are based in Weiningen.
