==Preceding developments==

Until 1982 the municipality with this name comprised, beside Margraten, the hamlets Groot Welsden, Klein Welsden, Termaar and 't Rooth.

In 1982 this municipality was extended with a number of neighbouring municipalities: [[Cadier en Keer]], [[Mheer]], [[Noorbeek]] and [[Sint Geertruid]]. Also the village Scheulder, that until then was part of another municipality, was added. 

As a result, from 1982 until 2011 the municipality of Margraten comprised the following population centres, that from 2011 on are all part of nowadays municipality of Eijsden-Margraten.
