History
[edit]Although it is not exactly clear where the name of the village comes from, the location was first mentioned as “Phunzun” in 1030 and later as “Phanes” in 1177. Formerly a part of Matrei am Brenner, Pfons was declared as independent in 1811. On 1 January 2022 Pfons and Mühlbachl were merged into the municipality of Matrei am Brenner.[3]
