In the 22nd century BC, Songyuan belonged to the early Sushen Kingdom. Fuyu has a long history. As early as the early Western Han Dynasty, Fuyu State, the first local agricultural state in Northeast China, was established here.

After the founding of the Republic of China, it was changed to Xincheng County in March 1913. It belongs to the Northwest Road of Jilin Province. In February 1914, because it had the same name as Xincheng County in Hebei, Shandong and other provinces, it was ordered to be renamed Fuyu County.

On November 19, 1987, the State Council approved the cancellation of Fuyu County and the establishment of Fuyu City (county level). In January 2013, with the approval of the State Council, Fuyu County was abolished and Fuyu City (county level) was re-established. The re-established Fuyu City was directly under the jurisdiction of Jilin Province and managed by Songyuan City.
