There is also a city in Hungary with same name (see: Debrecen) and the names of both places are of Slavic origin.

History

During the rule of Serb king Stephen Dragutin (end of the 13th century), Debrc was the capital of his realm between 1276 and 1283.

Afterwards, the area of Mačva became disputed between the Serbian states and the Kingdom of Hungary. Debrc was part of several Serbian states (the Serbian empire, the State of Nikola Altomanović, the Moravian Serbia, and the Serbian Despotate), before been conquered by the Ottoman Empire. In 1718–1739, it was part of the Habsburg Kingdom of Serbia, but was again conquered by the Ottomans in 1739. Since 1804, Debrc is part of modern Serbian state.

In 1892 the town established a modern school named Jovan Cvijic. The school building was constructed in 1910. In 1939, Orthodox Church Saint Constantine and Helena were built.
