Nir David

Nir David is a kibbutz in the Valley of Springs region of Israel. The settlement was designed around shared agricultural work and communal living, with residential areas, workspaces, and public spaces woven together throughout the grounds.

The kibbutz was founded in 1936 and followed the early Zionist model of an agricultural cooperative. Over the decades, it evolved and adapted to changing economic and social conditions.

The grounds are easy to explore on foot and most visitors can navigate the different areas without special preparation. It is advisable to wear comfortable shoes and bring plenty of water, especially on warm days.

The settlement maintains important elements of the original kibbutz system today, even as many communities have moved in different directions. This makes it a place where you can see the practical application of these idealistic founding principles still in action.
