Tel Litvinsky

Tel Litvinsky is a moshava and heritage site in Ramat Gan that became an agricultural settlement in the central region. The place combines residential areas with military facilities, including an IDF recruitment office and a training center for new soldiers.

The settlement was founded in 1934 by Moshe and Emil Litvinsky, who named it in memory of their father Elhanan. This founding was part of a larger movement to establish new communities in the region.

Founders with German and Polish roots established this community, where many academics and medical professionals chose to settle. The place reflects how immigrant groups shaped new social structures in the region.

The site contains military installations, so visitor access is restricted to certain areas. It is helpful to check beforehand which sections are open to the public.

During World War II, the British military base here housed Italian prisoners and served as a strategic checkpoint. The location controlled access to a nearby airport road, making it important for regional movement during wartime.
