History
Kanie was part of ancient Owari Province. During the Sengoku period, it was the site of the Siege of Kanie, where Toyotomi Hideyoshi fought the Oda clan to secure his hold over the province. It was part of the holdings of the Owari Domain under the Edo period Tokugawa shogunate. With the Meiji period establishment of the modern municipalities system on April 1, 1889, the town of Kanie was established. The 1891 Mino–Owari earthquake caused extensive damage to the area. In October 2003, Kanie participated in discussions with regards to a possible merge with neighboring town of Yatomi and village of Jūshiyama. However, negotiations failed in 2004 and Kanie decided to remain as an independent municipality.
