Möglingen was first mentioned in 1275 in a document of the Bishopric of Constance and mentioned in 1278 as "Meginingen" in a document of Count Ulrich of Asperg.Siehe Württ. Urkundenbuch Band VIII, Nr. 2832, Seite 141–142 bei [http://www.wubonline.de/?wub=3674 WUB online].

In the 13th century Möglingen was mainly in the hands of the County Palatine of Tübingens., who sold their remaining stake in 1308 to the House of Württemberg.

Since the 14th century the village belonged to Württembergian Oberamt Gröningen, from 1718 alternately to 1807 resolved Oberamt Gröningen and Oberamt Ludwigsburg, that became in 1934 the Ludwigsburg (district).
