History
In the late 19th and early 20th century, Devrek was part of the Kastamonu Vilayet of the Ottoman Empire. The name of the district, which is known as both Hızırbeyili and Devrek, was founded on September 5, 1887. It has been referred to as 'Hamidiye' for twenty-three years following the name of Abdul Hamid II.
The word meaning of the name of the district, which has been called Devrek again since 1910, means 'Monday' in Turkish, which has a reputation exceeding the boundaries of the region and is based on its market established in the district.
