Mường Pồn is a commune (xã) and village of the Điện Biên District of Điện Biên Province, northwestern Vietnam. Less than 4 kilometres from the Lao border, it lies along National Route 12, north by road from Dien Bien Phu. A small French force was located here before the Battle of Dien Bien Phu.[1] After a two-day siege, it fell to the Viet Minh on 12 December 1953, despite an attempt to relieve the garrison by Pierre Langlais.[2] The village was burned to the ground.[3]
