History

The town was named after the Spanish term for lumber. [10] The town was laid out by the California Lumber Company in 1876. [10] From 1876 to 1931, a 63-mile (101 km) water flume carried lumber from the mountains to Madera, where the lumber was shipped by train.

The first post office at Madera opened in 1877. [11] [10] On May 16, 1893, Madera County officially became a county of the state of California [12] and the town incorporated as the City of Madera on March 27, 1907. [10] One of the city's first African Americans to hold an elected office was Rev. Naaman N. Haynes, who was voted in as a Madera Unified School District school board trustee in the 1960s. [13]

Landmarks include the historic Madera County Courthouse, the notable Madera water tower, and a fully operational drive-in movie theater. [14]
