Postville was platted in 1853. The city was named for Joel Post, a pioneer settler.
In 1987, a group of Hasidic Jews started a Kosher slaughterhouse〔"Kosher slaughterhouse owners surrounded by scandal." ''Los Angeles Times'', August 4, 2008〕 called Agriprocessors, a business which remained in operation until it filed for bankruptcy on November 5, 2008 after a series of complaints of labor law violations and mistreatment of cattle. The facility was raided by the federal government in 2008, resulting in hundreds of arrests of illegal workers.〔Immigration Raid Jars a Small Town.
