The site of its municipal council was the town of Vojens.
The municipality was created in 1970 due to a kommunalreform ("Municipality Reform") that combined a number of existing parishes:
- Hammelev Parish
- Jegerup Parish
- Magstrup Parish
- Nustrup Parish
- Oksenvad Parish
- Skrydstrup Parish
- Sommersted Parish
- Vedsted Parish
- Vojens Parish
On 1 January 2007 Vojens municipality ceased to exist, as the result of Kommunalreformen ("The Municipality Reform" of 2007). It merged with existing Gram and Haderslev municipalities, as well as Bjerning, Hjerndrup, Fjelstrup and Bevtoft parishes of Christiansfeld municipality to form the new Haderslev municipality.
