Moshava remnants in Kfar Malal information

The remnants of the historic Moshava in Kfar Malal are buildings and items that were preserved from the Zionist Moshava established there in 1912, originally called Ein Hay. Between 1918 and 1921, the settlement's buildings were destroyed twice by the Ottomans and Arab rioters respectively. However, despite the difficulties, the settlement was rebuilt three times in total, and eventually expanded and thrived.

Despite the destructions the Moshava experienced in its early days, some of the ancient buildings survived for many years. In the early 21st century, they were preserved as part of the Ein Hay Museum project in Kfar Malal.

The history of the Moshava is intertwined with the history of settlement in the land of Israel in the years 1910–1960.^[1] The settlement was among the first worker's colonies ever established, and according to Dr. Yoel Pixler's estimate, it was the first actual worker's Moshava in the world already in 1919, even though it was not officially recognized as such, and the title is given to Nahalal.^[2]
