Be'er Ya'akov, Municipality in Ramla sub-district, Israel

Located in central Israel, Be'er Ya'akov spans 8.58 square kilometers at an elevation of 75 meters above sea level, near Ness Ziona and Rishon Lezion.

Established in 1907 on land purchased from a Lutheran German colony by a company led by Meir Dizengoff, the settlement started with 25 families by 1909.

The municipality received its name from Rabbi Yaakov Yitzhaki, who guided Mountain Jews from Dagestan in settling the area during its early development.

Be'er Ya'akov Railway Station connects the municipality to the Binyamina-Ashkelon line, providing transportation links to major urban centers in Israel.

The municipality houses IAI's MLM Division for missile assembly and two medical facilities: Yitzhak Shamir Medical Center and Shmuel HaRofe Geriatric Hospital.
