- The village of Tulgheş was mentioned for the first time in the 18th century as a part of Ciuc county. After the First World War it became the seat of the district of Tulgheş of Ciuc country in accordance with the law of territorial structure adopted by the Romanian administration in 1925. Between 1940 and 1944, when the Hungarian administration was reinstated, Tulgheş remained the centre of the eponymous district. After the Second World War the Romanian administration included it in the district of Gheorgheni and after the inauguration of the Communist regime it became part of the so-called Hungarian Autonomous Region. Since 1968 it is part of Harghita county.
