The municipality's main city and the site of its municipal council was Tommerup.

The municipality was created in 1970 due to a "kommunalreform" ("Municipality Reform") that combined the following parishes:
* Broholm Parish
* Brylle Parish
* Tommerup Parish
* Verninge Parish

Tommerup municipality ceased to exist as the result of "Kommunalreformen" ("The Municipality Reform" of 2007). It was merged with Haarby, Glamsbjerg, Assens, Aarup and Vissenbjerg municipality to form a new Assens municipality.
