Achhnera, (alternate spelling: Achnera) is a town and a municipal board in Agra district in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh.

==History== There are multiple theories regarding the foundation of Achhnera. According to one of these theories, it was founded by Achhnidhar Jats in 1250 AD, while according to another it was founded by Anangpal Tomar of the Tomara dynasty. In 1738 AD, King Suraj Mal of Bharatpur gave the jagir of Achhnera and 23 villages to his son-in-law. Achhnera also served as the headquarter of a pargana during Jat rule.
