The municipality was created in 1970 as the result of a kommunalreform ("Municipality Reform") that merged a number of existing parishes:
- Ejstrup Parish
- Klovborg Parish
- Nørre-Snede Parish
Nørre-Snede municipality ceased to exist as the result of Kommunalreformen ("The Municipality Reform" of 2007). It was merged with existing Brande and Ikast municipalities to form the new Ikast-Brande municipality. This created a municipality with an area of 768 km2 (297 sq mi) and a total population of 39,371 (2005). The new municipality belonged to Region Midtjylland ("Mid-Jutland Region").
