history

In 1972 archaeologists explored the old town of Phrom Phiram and found the old city ​​wall , foundations of chedis and celadon ceramics from Sukhothai . All of this indicated that there was an old connection route from Sukhothai to Bang Yang in the east.

King Borommatrailokanat went here with his troops to Phichai to wage war against King Tilokarat of Lan Na .

Amphoe Phrom Phiram was formed in 1895. Around 1950 the seat of the district administration was moved to the right bank of the Mae Nam Nan (Nan River) near Ban Yan Khat. After the northern line of the Thai Railroad was built, the district administration came to Ban Krap Phuang (now Ban Phrom Phiram), about 500 meters from Phrom Phiram station. The current building dates from 1976.
