Beit Yelin, Motza, Heritage house in Motza, Israel.

Beit Yelin is a stone house from the 1890s situated in the Motza Valley with preserved gardens, olive trees, and grapevines surrounding it. The buildings and grounds display the layout and construction typical of early private farming estates in this region.

The house was built in 1890 and became the first private residence in Motza. This construction marked the start of agricultural settlement in this part of the Jerusalem region.

The house is named after Yehoshua Yelin, who lived in the adjacent 1890 building with his wife Sharach until the end of World War I. The visitor centre shows a short film on the history of Motza and holds activities on the settlement of the area. The old Motza synagogue, once a roadside khan, still serves residents on Fridays and Saturdays.

The house is open to groups and individual visitors as a historic visitor centre, with a permanent exhibition that includes a short film on its history. The Crusader-period hall in the basement is not open to the public. Visits and guided tours should be arranged in advance.

A 2013 archaeological dig uncovered a large vaulted hall from the Crusader period beneath the house, later used as a cattle shed; this underground space is not open to the public. The house also has a water well beside it.
