The Large Yard at Merhavia

The Large Yard at Merhavia contains multiple structures including a historic house, dining room, kitchen, bakery, and agricultural facilities across its grounds.

The site originated as part of the cooperative movement in Israel, documenting early kibbutz life and community development in the Jezreel Valley region.

The museum preserves and displays items from daily kibbutz operations, including tools, agricultural equipment, and communal living spaces from different periods.

Visitors can explore Golda Meir's preserved room, the first cowshed, silo, tools storeroom, and cooperative secretariat through guided tours at the site.

The museum features the original big house structure with its dining facilities, representing one of the earliest examples of cooperative living arrangements in Israel.
