Kfar Jarra (Arabic: كفرجرة) is a municipality in the Jezzine District of the South Governorate of Lebanon, about 50 km south of Beirut.
[2] In 1838, Eli Smith noted Kefr Jerra, as a village located in "Aklim et-Tuffah, adjacent to Seida".
[3] In 1875, Victor Guérin travelled in the area, and noted: "I arrive at Kefr Djerra, a village of about twenty Maronite families, on a hill whose slopes are occupied by orchards.
Several ancient cisterns dug into the rock and some of the materials that were used to build the church, which I am told is one hundred and forty years old, prove that this village succeeded another older one.
"[4] In 2014, Christians made up 99.19% of registered voters in Kfar Jarra.
