Beit HaBiluyim, building in Israel
Beit HaBiluyim is an old stone building in Tel Aviv that dates to the late 18th or early 19th century and sits near the historic route that once connected Jaffa to Jerusalem. The structure expanded gradually over time as rooms and an upper floor were added, transforming it from a simple house into a more complex dwelling.
The building was constructed in the late 18th or early 19th century in an area focused on agriculture and trade. It later served as housing and a gathering place for settlers and workers who operated in the region.
The property includes a well that still stands in its original location, along with remains of water storage and irrigation systems that once served the surrounding gardens. The area is easily accessible and located within an established neighborhood of Tel Aviv with good transportation connections.
The house was originally known as a retreat for local leaders and was used by a group of early settlers who arrived in the region during the 19th century. This connection to the first settlement movements makes it an important testament to the early modern history of the area.
