History

Before 1949, the entire area of Chenyu Town belonged to Chenao Township (). Chenyu People's Commune was established in 1961, and in 1984, it was renamed Chenyu Town.

On June 19, 1992, the Damaiyu Economic Development Zone Management Committee was established. On November 6, 1993, the Damaiyu Economic Development Zone was approved by the Zhejiang Provincial Government, and Chenyu Town and the Damaiyu Economic Development Zone Management Committee shared offices.

In June 2000, Chenyu Town was renamed Chenyu Town Office of Zhugang Town, under the administration of Zhugang Town. In October 2001, Xiandie Town was merged into Chenyu Office. In December 2008, Chenyu Town Office of Zhugang Town and Damaiyu Economic Development Zone were separated. In August 2009, Zhugang Town was abolished, and Chenyu Town Office of Zhugang Town was renamed Damaiyu Subdistrict. Other changes in administrative divisions included Yucheng Subdistrict and Kanmen Subdistrict. The name "Damaiyu" comes from the government office located in Damaiyu Community.
