History
According to legend, there were two brothers and their nephew who came to Çabër first and gave it its name. Eventually a village was formed and grew to have a large population. The brothers and their nephew allegedly came from Qafë Prush, which is located on the border of Kosovo (Gjakova) and Albania. The most common surnames in the village are Uka, Kurti, and Mehmeti.

On 29th March 1999, Serbian artillery fired shells from the village Zupç destroying the whole village. After the war funds were raised to rebuild Çabër and the local Albanian population started returning to their village.
