The Zulu King Shaka founded the town and named the town KwaDukuza, which means the “Place of the Lost Person”. The town was burnt to ashes after King Shaka was assassinated by his brothers: Dingane and Mhlangana in 1828. 45 years later, European settlers built a town there and named it Stanger, after William Stanger who was the Surveyor-General of Natal. In 1949 the town became a municipality and became an important sugar-producing district.
