Guanshan People's Commune (the forebear of Guanshan Subdistrict) was established in August 1958.[2][5][6]

In March 1961, Guanshan People's Commune and Hongshan District People's Commune were combined into Hongshan District.[6]

From June 1963, Hongshan District included Guanshan Subdistrict.[5][6]

In August 1964, Guanshan Subdistrict was transferred from Hongshan District to Wuchang District.[5][6]

In July 1986, Guanshan Subdistrict was transferred from Wuchang District to Hongshan District.[5][3]
