Before 1300 the valley was probably largely uninhabited, then it came under the rule of the Lords of Vaz and later the Counts of Toggenburg. At the invitation of the feudal lords, the Walsers immigrated in the 14th century and founded settlements in Ascharina and the Gafiertal. The parish church was built in 1370, first of all a building site had to be cleared, due to the existence of forest avalanches were still unknown. In 1799, as part of the French Wars, Austrian troops marched over the passes through the St. Antönier Valley into the Prättigau. In order to prevent further attempts to circumvent the area, the St. Antönien barrier was set up during World War II. In the avalanche winter of 1951, 42 buildings were destroyed and the first large-scale avalanche barriers in Switzerland were built in St. Antönien.
