The Monegasque Scout organization was under the patronage ofFrench Scouting since 1918, and became an independent member of theWorld Organization of the Scout Movement in 1990. The first Guide company in Monaco formed in 1929, and Guiding developed under theGuides de France.

In 1992 the Scout association and the Guide association merged and formed the AGSM.
