Kinneret, Agricultural settlement in Emek HaYarden, Israel

The settlement extends along a north-south road with basalt stone houses and protective walls built on the western side of Lake Kinneret.

Established in 1909 by the Jewish Colonization Association, Kinneret stands on the site of ancient Tzinbari, a fortified city from Second Temple period.

The Kinneret Farm, founded in 1908, became the birthplace of the kibbutz movement and the first women's agricultural training facility in Israel.

The settlement maintains agricultural operations focusing on citrus fruits and dairy production while offering community services for residents and visitors.

Founders Street preserves the original basalt stone houses from 1909, demonstrating early twentieth-century agricultural settlement architecture in Israel.
