History

Leimbach is first mentioned in 1300 as Leimbach.[1] During the Middle Ages the rights to collect tithes was divided between the Lords of Reinach, Hallwyl, Heidegg, Rupperswil, Büttikon, Falkenstein, Liebegg, and the Monastery at Beromünster. Starting in 1415 Leimbach was under Berner authority. At the behest of Bern, it broke away in 1528 from the Catholic parish of Pfeffikon and in 1529 joined the Reformed parish of Reinach. It wasn't until 1751 that the village received from Bern its own municipal law and mayor. In 1803, after the Act of Mediation, it became part of the newly formed Canton of Aargau.

In the 18th and 19th Centuries the main sources of income were small scale cotton and tobacco production. Starting in the 1920s, a sheet metal and wire factory was built in the municipality.[1]
