Mazor, Agricultural moshav in Hevel Modi'in Regional Council, Israel
Description
Mazor is a moshav, a Jewish agricultural community in the southeastern Sharon Plain about three kilometers southeast of Petah Tikva. The settlement spreads across farmland and residential areas where roughly 1300 people live today.
History
The settlement was founded in 1949 by Jewish immigrants from Czechoslovakia and Hungary. The early village had a different name at first, but was later renamed to reflect an important medicinal herb factory that became central to the place.
Culture
The community's roots run deep in farming, and agriculture shapes daily life here. Residents who work the land or in local businesses keep this tradition central to how the place functions.
Practical
The place is easy to reach, with residential areas, fields, and community facilities woven together throughout. The flat terrain makes it straightforward to explore the area, and open spaces invite walking.
Did you know?
Beneath the surface lies archaeological evidence from Roman times, including a rare burial monument from the 3rd century. This structure remains the only intact example of its kind found in Israel and offers a window into the ancient past of the region.
