Hanna City is a village in Peoria County, Illinois, United States. The population was 1,225 at the 2010 census. Hanna City is part of the Peoria Metropolitan Statistical Area.

Hanna City was founded in 1882 and named after William Hanna (born 1827), who was president of the Peoria-Farmington Railroad, which ran through Hanna City. While originally a farming community, coal was soon discovered under the town. The coal mine was a major factor in the early years of the town and kept it thriving for more than half a century.[2] The main coal mine shaft was near the intersection of Second St and the railroad.[citation needed]
