From Meina, in Roman times, passed the Via Severiana Augusta, a Roman consular road that connected Mediolanum (modern Milan) with the Verbannus Lacus (Lake Verbano, or Lake Maggiore, and from here to the Sempione pass (lat. Summo Plano) .

Located on the Piedmontese shore of Lake Maggiore, Meina has been part of the Vergante Community since the Middle Ages, having signed in 1389, together with the municipality of Lesa, the Vergante Statutes approved by Archbishop Antonio da Saluzzo.

The municipality follows first directly the events of the Duchy of Milan until the mid-15th century when Filippo Maria Visconti granted the ownership of Meina, Lesa and Vergante to Vitaliano I Borromeo.

Meina then follows the history of the Borromeo counts of Arona.

In 1748, with the Treaty of Aachen which puts an end to the War of the Austrian Succession, Charles Emmanuel III of Savoy obtains the Upper Novara area which thus enters the Kingdom of Sardinia.

At the end of the 18th century the Community of Vergante dissolves under the onslaught of the Napoleonic armies and the new European order.
Since 1805 Meina, in the Department of Agogna, has been part of the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy.

At the fall of Napoleon, like all of Vergante, Meina returns to be part of the Kingdom of Sardinia, finally of the Kingdom of Italy in 1861.

Ghevio, already an independent municipality, was aggregated to Meina in 1928[4].

Between 15 and 23 September 1943, the town of Meina was the scene of the massacre of sixteen Italian Jews from Greece committed by the Nazi SS in the Hotel Meina owned by Alberto Behar, a Turkish citizen of Jewish origin.[5][6] In memory of the massacre, in 2015 the stumbling blocks were placed at the landing stage , near the place where the Meina hotel once stood. The most recent book documenting these events was published in August 2023, on the occasion of the eightieth anniversary of the massacre (Meina September 1943. Massacres, concealments and amnesia, Alberti editore).

Attested in Meina since the 16th century is the noble Luatti (or Lovati) family from Arona, now extinct, owner of an ancient palace in via Fabbriche.

Since the nineteenth century, Meina has been a holiday resort for important families, in particular the Novara nobles Cacciapiatti, Fossati de Regibus and Faraggiana. Other notable families, whose name has been or still is linked to the possession of palaces, villas or historic buildings in Meinese are: Cotti Piccinelli, Cumbo, Bedone, Bonomi, Bossi, Faraone, Favini, Galli, Gatti Grami, Lorenzini, Luoni, Minazza , Mondadori, Pernot, (de) Savoiroux.[7]
