Beit Govrin Police Station

The structure features two floors and includes guard towers, firing loopholes, and operational courtyard areas integrated into its defensive architecture.

Constructed in 1942 during the British Mandate period, this police station served as a strategic control point for maintaining order in the surrounding region.

The building represents an example of Tegart fort design, which characterized British military and law enforcement architecture in Palestine during the 1940s.

Visitors can access the station during specific hours to explore the preserved structure and learn about local law enforcement history through guided tours.

The facility maintains dual functionality as both an active police station and a designated national heritage site, preserving its original architectural elements.
