The municipality of Rennebu was established in 1839 when it was separated from [[Meldal Municipality]]. Initially, the population was 2,368.<ref name="Dag">{{Cite web |last=Jukvam |first=Dag |year=1999 |title=Historisk oversikt over endringer i kommune- og fylkesinndelingen |url=http://www.ssb.no/emner/00/90/rapp_9913/rapp_9913.pdf |publisher=[[Statistics Norway|Statistisk sentralbyrå]] |language=no |isbn=9788253746845}}</ref>

During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the [[Schei Committee]]. On 1 January 1966, the parish of [[Innset, Trøndelag|Innset]] (population: 420) was transferred from [[Kvikne Municipality]] (and also from [[Hedmark]] county) to Rennebu Municipality (and [[Sør-Trøndelag]] county). Then on 1 January 1970, the Garlia area (population: 5) was transferred from [[Tynset Municipality]] (and Hedmark county) to Rennebu Municipality (and Sør-Trøndelag).<ref name="Dag" />

On 1 January 2018, the municipality switched from the old [[Sør-Trøndelag]] county to the new [[Trøndelag]] county.

===Name===
The municipality (originally the [[prestegjeld|parish]]) is named Rennebu ({{langx|non|Rennabú}}). The first element is, maybe, the [[plural]] [[genitive case]] of {{wikt-lang|non|renna}} which means "journey", "march", or "road". Probably because two old important roads cross the municipality: one follows the [[Orkla (river)|Orkla]] river from the [[Orkdalsfjord]] (part of the [[Trondheimsfjord]]) to the village of [[Berkåk]] where it connects with the road from the [[Gudbrandsdalen]] valley and [[Oppdal Municipality]] to [[Gauldalen]] and [[Trondheim Municipality]] (today the [[European route E6]] highway). The last element is {{wikt-lang|non|bú}} which means "rural district".<ref>{{Cite book |last=Rygh |first=Oluf |author-link=Oluf Rygh |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=AGxBAAAAIAAJ |title=Norske gaardnavne: Søndre Trondhjems amt |publisher=W. C. Fabritius & sønners bogtrikkeri |year=1901 |edition=14 |location=Kristiania, Norge |pages=166 |language=no}}</ref>

===Coat of arms===
The [[coat of arms]] was granted on 19 February 1982. The official [[blazon]] is ''"[[Or (heraldry)|Or]], a [[Pall (heraldry)|pall]] reversed [[couped]] [[gules]]"'' ({{langx|no|I gull ein svevande omvend raud gaffelkross}}). This means the arms have a [[field (heraldry)|field]] (background) has a [[tincture (heraldry)|tincture]] of [[Or (heraldry)|Or]] which means it is commonly colored yellow, but if it is made out of metal, then gold is used. The [[charge (heraldry)|charge]] is a Y-shaped design in red. The design symbolizes the outline of the local church, ''[[Rennebu Church|Rennebu kirke]]'' (erected 1669), which is one of the oldest (and very few) churches in Norway based on a [[churches in Norway#Cruciform|Y-shaped]] outline. The arms were designed by Bjørn Casper Horgen after an idea by Magne Jostein Hoel. The municipal flag has the same design as the coat of arms.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Civic heraldry of Norway - Norske Kommunevåpen |url=https://www.heraldry-wiki.com/heraldrywiki/index.php?title=Rennebu |access-date=2023-02-17 |publisher=Heraldry of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Rennebu, South Trøndelag (Norway) |url=https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/no-16-35.html |access-date=2023-02-17 |website=Flags of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=1982-04-23 |title=Godkjenning av våpen og flagg |url=https://lovdata.no/dokument/LF/forskrift/1982-02-19-425 |access-date=2023-02-17 |website=Lovdata.no |publisher=Norges kommunal- og arbeidsdepartementet |language=no}}</ref>
