Hadera was established in 1891 as a farming colony by members of the Zionist group, Hovevei Zion, from Lithuania and Latvia. By 1948, it was a regional center with a population of 11,800. In 1952, Hadera was declared a city, with jurisdiction over an area of 53,000 dunams.<ref name="Haaretz"/>
HistoryEdit
Ottoman eraEdit
Hadera was founded on 24 January 1891, in the early days of modern Zionism by Jewish immigrants from Lithuania and Latvia on land purchased by Yehoshua Hankin, known as the Redeemer of the Valley.<ref name="Haaretz"/> The land was purchased from a Christian effendi, Selim Khuri. This was the largest purchase of land in Eretz Israel by a Zionist group, although the land was of low quality and mostly swampland. The only inhabitants prior to the purchase were a few families raising water buffaloes and selling papyrus reeds.<ref name="dispossession">Template:Cite book</ref> The village was named after Wadi al-Khudeira<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> (Template:Langx),<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> as the nearby section of Hadera Stream was known. Earlier, the whole Hadera Stream had been known as Nahr Akhdar (Template:Langx).<ref>Template:Cite book</ref><ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>
The Crusaders called the location Lictera – a corruption of the Arabic name, el-Khudeira. From the outset, attempts were made to pick instead a Hebrew name for the new settlement.<ref name="Zaharoni">Template:Cite book</ref> About half a year after it was founded, rabbi Ya'akov Goldman reported on an event in "the moshav of Hadere, that is, Hatzor".<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> The name Liktera was in preferential use by the British military during World War I.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref><ref>Template:Cite book</ref>
In the end of the nineteenth century, the region of Hadera was populated by three immigrant groups – Circassians, Bosnians and Russian Jews. These transnational colonists joined what was, in Roy Marom's words, "a sparsely populated coastal plain inhabited by Arabic-speaking highland peasants and nomads of Turkmen, Nubian, Egyptian and of Arabian-Peninsular descent". Marom further notes that in 1871 Ottoman authorities inspected Khirbet al-Khudeira, and found it 'empty of inhabitants and lacking resident peasants who are eligible to purchase it in return for the payment of land registration fees". Selim al-Khoury, a Christian merchant from Haifa, purchased Kh. al-Khudeira, together with 3000 hectares of land, and established an agricultural estate among the ruins. In 1890, al-Khoury sold al-Khudeira to Yehoshua Hankin (1864–1945).<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>
Baron Edmond James de Rothschild's surveyor, Yitzhak Goldhar, claimed that Hadera was founded on the site of the former town called Gedera of Caesarea (Template:Langx), as mentioned in Tosefta Shevi'it, ch. 7.<ref name="Goldhar">Template:Cite book</ref> Benjamin Mazar preferred to locate ancient Gador, formerly known as Gedera by Caesaria, at Tell Ahḍar ("green hill"), later known as Tell esh Sheikh Ziraq<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> and currently as Tel Gador, on the coast south of Giv'at Olga.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref> Others say that the ancient Gadera should be identified with Umm Qais or with al-Judeira.
The first Jewish settlers lived in a building known as the Khan near Hadera's main synagogue.Template:Citation needed The population consisted of ten families and four guards. In 1896 Baron Rothschild paid for "hundreds of black labourers" from Egypt "to dig the broad and deep trenches" needed to drain the swamps. They "died in scores".<ref>Template:Cite book</ref><ref>Barbour, Nevill Nisi Dominus - A Survey of the Palestine Controversy. First published 1946. The Institute for Palestine Studies, Beirut 1969. Reprint series No. 3. p.115</ref> Old tombstones in the local cemetery reveal that out of a population of 540, 210 died of malaria.<ref name="handbook">Template:Cite book</ref> Therefore, a Bible verse from the Psalms (Tehillim) was inscribed in the city's logo: "Those who sow in tears, will reap with songs of joy." (Ps 126:5) Hashomer guards kept watch over the fields to prevent incursions by the neighboring Bedouin.
By the early twentieth century, Hadera had become the regional economic center.<ref name="Haaretz"/> In 1913, the settlement included forty households, as well as fields and vineyards, stretching over 30,000 dunams.<ref name="Goldhar"/>

Financed by investors from Israel, United States, Brazil and Australia, the mill was designed to meet all of Israel's paper needs.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> New neighborhoods were built, among them Givat Olga on the coast, and Beit Eliezer in the east of the city. In 1964, Hadera was declared a city.<ref name="Haaretz"/>
In the 1990s, large numbers of Russian and Ethiopian immigrants settled in Hadera.<ref name="Haaretz"/> Hadera, considered a safe place by its inhabitants, was jolted by several acts of terrorism during the second intifada.
