Tzur Moshe

Tzur Moshe, Agricultural moshav in Lev HaSharon Regional Council, Israel.

Tzur Moshe is an agricultural moshav in central Israel surrounded by farmland and connected to nearby cities through local roads. The settlement provides agricultural services and small local businesses that form the foundation of daily economic life here.

The settlement was founded in September 1937 by 20 immigrants from Kastoria, Greece, after land was purchased from the Hannun family of Tulkarm in 1936. This founding by Greek pioneers was part of the early wave of settlement in central Israel.

The name honors Moshe Kofinas, a Greek parliamentarian who led the Greek branch of the National Zionist Organisation. This connection to the Greek Jewish community remains visible in local traditions and community identity today.

The location lies on the Sharon plain and is best reached via local roads that connect it to nearby cities. The infrastructure centers on agricultural activities and small businesses, creating a quieter pace of life tied to farming seasons.

The Athens park was designed by architect Elias Messinas and symbolizes the connection between Israeli and Greek Jewish communities through its design elements. This green space creatively preserves the heritage of the settlement's Greek founders.
