Nahalal

The settlement spreads across 8,700 dunams of land in northern Israel, featuring residential homes arranged in a circular pattern around farming plots.

Established in 1921 during the British Mandate period, Nahalal became the first moshav in Israel, introducing a new model of cooperative farming settlement.

The community maintains strong agricultural traditions through educational programs, farming activities, and regular celebrations of seasonal harvests and Jewish festivals.

Visitors can reach Nahalal via road connections from major northern Israeli cities and participate in agricultural tours throughout the working farms.

The settlement follows architect Richard Kauffmann's distinctive circular design, with equal-sized farming plots radiating from a central community area.
