History
Originally a barrio, Infanta was created out of Santa Cruz, Zambales on October 4, 1876 to become an independent municipality by virtue of a Superior Decree by the Spanish colonial government. Infanta was gradually populated by Ilocano settlers from Paoay, Ilocos Norte over the years.
On October 15, 1903, by virtue of Act No. 945, entitled “An Act Reducing the Twenty-five Municipalities of the Province of Zambales to Fifteen,” while still part of the Province of Zambales, the municipality of Infanta retained its existing boundaries.
On November 30, 1903, by virtue of Act No. 1004, the municipalities of Bolinao, Alaminos, San Isidro (Burgos), and Infanta were annexed to the Province of Pangasinan.
On December 19, 1903, by virtue of Act No. 1029, Act No. 1004 was amended to include the municipalities of Anda, Bani, and Agno among those annexed to the Province of Pangasinan.
On October 26, 1904, the barrio of Eguia, then a part of the municipality of San Isidro (Burgos), was annexed to and consolidated with the municipality of Infanta.
Through Presidential Proclamation 693, October 4, 2024 was declared a special non-working day in celebration of its 148th founding anniversary.
