Zikhron Yaakov

Zichron Ya'akov straddles the southern ridge of the Carmel Range in Israel’s Haifa District, and its elevated position above the Mediterranean coastal plain has long linked the town to farming and coast-bound routes. Founded in 1882 during the First Aliyah, it became closely associated with Baron Edmond de Rothschild’s support for local vineyards and winemaking. The historic wine cellars remain central to its identity, while the Nili Museum at the Aaronsohn House recounts the wartime underground network formed here during the First World War.
