History

Nehora was founded in 1955 as part of the program to inhabit Hevel Lakhish and was intended to serve as a center of services for surrounding communities. A shopping center, regional school and the offices of the Lakhish Regional Council are located there.

It is built on the land of the depopulated Palestinian villages of Karatiyya and al-Faluja.[2]
