The municipality Alfdorf came into being in 1972 from the union of the earlier municipalities of Alfdorf, Pfahlbronn and Vordersteinenberg to the new municipality called Alfdorf.

With the new arrangement of the administrative districts the municipality Alfdorf came to the Rems-Murr-Kreis and therefore to Stuttgart Region.
