Although the history of the village goes back to very old years, it is not known exactly when it was founded. The local Orthodox Greek population of the village immigrated to Greece in the early 1920s and was replaced by immigrants from Thessaloniki. As of the 1930s, the Turks who emigrated from Romania were also included in the village population. With the industrialization that has developed in Turkey since the 1950s, a significant part of the villagers migrated to the central district of Tekirdağ and to the surrounding cities such as Istanbul and Izmit. A significant amount of workforce also works abroad, especially in Germany. Although there were many examples of ancient Greek works (monasteries, examples of civil architecture) in the past years, very few of them have survived over time. As of today, the main livelihoods are agriculture (wheat, sunflower, onion, viticulture) and livestock.

There is a widespread rumor that the name of the village comes from the name "Simitli", based on the ovens that existed in the village during the Greeks and where the breads called "Simit" were baked in the region. As a matter of fact, the name of the village is referred to as "Simitlé" in some Western sources describing the Greek history.
