Hatra Hatra (arabisch الحضر al-Ḥaḍr; aramäisch ḥṭrʾ) war in der Antike die Hauptstadt eines mesopotamischen Kleinfürstentums im Machtbereich des Partherreichs. Aufgrund seiner Denkmälerfülle war Hatra einer der aussagekräftigsten Fundorte der Partherzeit. Es gehört zum Weltkulturerbe der UNESCO. Die Ruinen der Stadt liegen im heutigen Irak. 2015 wurde Hatra ebenso wie Palmyra von Islamisten zu erheblichen Teilen zerstört.
