The first mention in documents of the locality dates back to 1202-1203 when it was known as villa Pankota.

The centre of the town was ravaged by invaders for several times. The Turks captured the town repeatedly. In 1687 it got under the administration of the Habsburg empire as confirmed by the Treaty of Karlowitz in 1699.

Until 1918, Pâncota was part of the Austrian monarchy, province of Hungary; in Transleithania after the compromise of 1867 in the Kingdom of Hungary.

The post-office was opened in 1855. The Treaty of Trianon (1920) attributed the Arad region to Romania (the Great Romanian Union).
