When the railroad was built through Tenhult in 1864, the new village expanded with the railwaystation as the central point. From being a small peasant village, it became a trading and industrial center as it is also now. Business and small industries were established. There is fairly good bus and train connection with central Jönköping. The railway line runs between Nässjö and Falköping.

As that the war between Sweden and Denmark in 1612 also hit Tenhult.
