The settlement of Tengzhou is said to date back to the Yellow Emperor.[4]

After the collapse of the Shang dynasty, present-day Tengzhou became the center of the independent Teng state.[4] Eventually, it was conquered by the Qin state.[4]

Upon the reunification of the region, the region became incorporated as Teng County (simplified Chinese: 滕县; traditional Chinese: 滕縣).[4] It remained as Teng County until the Jin Dynasty, when it became the Tengyang Prefecture (simplified Chinese: 滕阳州; traditional Chinese: 滕陽州).[4] The prefecture was abolished at the start of the Ming Dynasty.[4]

From 1945 to 1953, the county changed administration numerous times, before finally becoming Teng County.[4]

On March 7, 1988, Teng County became the county-level city of Tengzhou.[4]
