Histoire

La commune fusionne en l'an III avec Orbeville.

En 1944.

Les 28 et 29 juillet 1944, Saint-Denis-le-Gast est le théâtre d'une bataille tactique avec la 2^e division blindée américaine du général White qui empêche l'infanterie et les tanks allemands piégés dans la poche de Roncey de passer au sud d'une ligne Tessy-Bréhal .

Elle absorbe Grimesnil le 1^er février 1973 (arrêté du 15 janvier 1973) avant que cette dernière reprenne son autonomie le 1^er janvier 1984 (arrêté du 29 juin 1983).

Démographie

L'évolution du nombre d'habitants est connue à travers les recensements de la population effectués dans la commune depuis 1793.
À partir du 21^e siècle, les recensements réels des communes de moins de 10 000 habitants ont lieu tous les cinq ans, contrairement aux autres communes qui ont une enquête par sondage chaque année. En 2019, la commune comptait 525 habitants.
