The first record of Habry can be found in the Kosmas Chronicle from 1101. It is connected with the so-called Haberská Trail connecting Bohemia and Moravia. The earliest record concerning Jews is also connected to the trail - it is in the toll tariff from 1341. After 1850, it became the seat of the district court and the center of the Habry self-governing district and part of the Čáslav political district. In the modern times, there was an important Jewish community. A Jewish cemetery has been preserved there. In the 19th century, the town had a rural, agricultural character, the only larger enterprise - the glove factory Werfel & Böhm (affiliate) - disappeared during the First World War.
