Established as a village of weavers and textile workers, and
named Jida. Later it was renamed Manor and Yefe
Nof. It was almost fully deserted after few years and only
donation by Israel Yehuda Adler in 1944 saved it and it was
renamed in his honor shortly afterwards. Local Council since
1958.

"motel") that was built in 1909 and was used by first
settlers for residence. It is now situated in the industrial
zone, north to the community.
