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

The Yellin House features a traditional stone structure with an adjacent garden, vineyard, and olive grove situated in the Motza Valley.

Built in 1890 by Yehoshua Yellin, this residence marked the first private house in Motza and initiated agricultural development in the Jerusalem region.

The house serves as a visitor center presenting exhibitions about early agricultural settlements and the transformation of farming practices in Israel.

Guided tours of the estate require advance reservations and can accommodate groups of up to eighty participants with on-site parking facilities.

The property contains a rare preserved plum branch specific to Israel and an ancient water cistern dating back to the Crusader period.
