== Toponymy ==
The name ''Hadrut'' is of Persian origin and means "between two rivers". This is explained by the fact that the older part of the settlement was located between two streams, Guney-chay and Guzey-chay. Hadrut later expanded beyond the two rivers to the east and west.<ref name="СМОМПК">{{cite book |last=Davidbekov |first=I. |title=Сборник материалов для описания местностей и племён Кавказа.

The date of Hadrut's foundation is unknown. Fragments of monuments and historical artifacts dated to pre-Christian, early Christian and medieval times have been found in and around Hadrut. There are several ruins of ancient fortresses and walls in the valley surrounding Hadrut. From medieval times until the early 19th century, Hadrut was a part of the Armenian [[Dizak|Principality of Dizak]], one of the five [[Melikdoms of Karabakh]].<ref name="Shahen"/> In the 15th and 16th century, many of the fortifications, churches and settlements around Hadrut were destroyed by [[Ottoman Empire|Ottoman]] and [[Safavid Iran|Safavid]] forces as they fought for control of the South Caucasus. A small number of these structures were rebuilt under the rule of the meliks of Dizak.<ref name="Shahen"/> The Melikdom of Dizak was subordinated to the [[Karabakh Khanate]] before the Russian conquest of Karabakh.{{Citation needed|date=January 2021}}
During the Russian period, Hadrut was governed as part of different administrative divisions: first as a part of Karabakh Province (1822–1840), then in the [[Shusha uezd]] of the [[:ru:Каспийская область|Caspian Oblast]] (1840–1846), then in the Shusha uezd of the [[:ru:Шемахинская губерния|Shemakha Governorate]] (1846–1859), then of the Shusha uezd of the [[Baku Governorate]] (1859–1868), and finally, of the Shusha uezd of the [[Elizavetpol Governorate]] (1868–1873) and later the [[Jebrail uezd]] of the Elizavetpol Governorate (1873–1917) successively.
In the [[Soviet Union|Soviet]] period, Hadrut became the centre of the [[Hadrut District (NKAO)|Hadrut District]] of the [[Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast]] within [[Azerbaijan SSR]] and was given the [[urban settlement]] status in 1963.<ref name="ase">{{Azerbaijani Soviet Encyclopedia|10|127|Һадрут}}</ref> Some of the earliest activities of the [[Karabakh movement]] occurred in Hadrut, beginning with the collection of petitions in 1986 for the transfer of the [[Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast]] to the [[Armenian SSR]] and culminating in a demonstration of one thousand people in Hadrut in February 1988, which then spread to the capital of the [[Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast|NKAO]], Stepanakert.<ref>{{cite book |last=Hakobyan |first=Tatul |author-link= |date=2010 |title=Karabakh Diary: Green and Black: Neither War Nor Peace |url= |location=Antelias, Lebanon |publisher= |pages=23–25 |isbn=978-9953-0-1816-4}}</ref> Following the Armenian victory in the [[First Nagorno-Karabakh War]], Hadrut became the administrative center of the [[Hadrut Province]] of the [[Republic of Artsakh]].
