Description

Started as idea to build an ultra-orthodox Jewish city in the heart of the Shomron (Samaria) by the private venture of Kokhav HaSomron Company. The building started in 1981 with first families entering their homes in 1983, but the collapsing and the liquidation of the initiating company in 1985 (same year that it became a Local Council) brought things to halt never to be recovered again. Pop: 2400 (2003). Name taken from the Bible (Isaiah 7:14)
