history

In one of the oldest sources there is still talk of "Profusse". This place name is clearly derived from the Latin “profusio”, meaning a “flood plain”. From the area originally related to the confluence area of ​​the Sanna and Inn , the name was finally transferred to the entire current district of Landeck .

  • The name "Thial" for Perfuchs' local mountain belongs to the oldest Celtic place-name layer: the place where an alpine hut is located. Originally, this did not mean the mountain head, but the area below it.
  • The place names for Kristille (small hill), Katlaun (large courtyard), or Gasill (small house) are Romanesque.
  • On the other hand, the name “Burschl” can be traced back to the Bavarians . The place on a prominent elevation indicates that there was a fortified system here that controlled the traffic towards Stanzertal .
There was due to a pledge in the plague , the plague chapel of the Holy to the 1650th Sebastian , Rochus and Pirmin (Burschl Church) built, a Gothic structure, consecrated in 1656.

Landeck is mentioned for the first time in 1282. This consisted of three already existing, mutually independent Dinggemeinden Stanzertal , Zams and Fliess . For each of these districts, called third, there was a separate thing place, a meeting point for general court or community assemblies. For the largest community, known as Zwotel or “two part”, it was in Perfuchs: It encompassed the entire Stanzertal up to the Arlberg including the Kaisers , but also the Paznaun towns of Kappl including Langesthei .

Perfuchs remained an independent Tyrolean community until the end of the 19th century, which was characterized by farming and craftsmanship. In addition, in this district, which had its economic heyday at the beginning of modern times , there were numerous inns on the thoroughfare towards Arlberg. The two fractions of Perjen and Bruggen were part of the municipality of Perfuchs, which thus comprised the entire part of today's municipality of Landeck located to the left of the Inn.

In 1900 it was merged with the neighboring town of Angedair on the right of the Inn to form the municipality of Landeck.
