History
In Buri is an ancient city, one of the major Mueang or city states. It was built in the reign of King Ramesuan in 1369. In the Ayutthaya era, the governor of In Buri always was a royal family member because In Buri was as a north frontier city of Ayutthaya. During the thesaphiban administrative reforms King Rama V downgraded In Buri to be a subordinate of Singburi in 1895. It was converted into a district of Singburi province later.
