PRODUCE GRANARY

בניין האבן גדול-המידות הזה, הוקם בשנת 1912. זה היה אחד משמונה מבנים שיצרו את חצר הקואופרציה, אותה תכנן האדריכל אלכסנדר ברוולד. בקומה העליונה, ששטחה 200 מ"ר, אוחסנו בתאים גדולים גרעיני התבואה בתפזורת. בקומת הקרקע, בעלת שטח זהה, היו מחסנים. האסם המשיך לפעול, במתכונת שונה, עד שלהי המאה העשרים.
מאז 2004 משמשת קומת הקרקע כמרכז מבקרים בשם "החצר הגדולה במרחביה".
משנת 1978 פעל בקומה העליונה "הגורן", דיסקוטק ופאב של צעירי הקיבוץ, ונערכו בו מסיבות ומפגשים חברתיים. בהמשך, הושכר המקום כמועדון בילוי פרטי. על הרחבה והמדשאה, בחזית המבנה, מתקיימים מזה שנים אירועי חג, חתונות ומופעי זמר.

Grain Barn
PRODUCE GRANARY

This large-scale stone building was erected in 1912. It was one of eight buildings that made up the cooperative yard, which was designed by architect Alexander Baerwald. On the upper floor, which has an area of ​​200 square meters, the bulk grains were stored in large cells. On the ground floor, which has the same area, there were warehouses. The barn continued to operate, in a different format, until the end of the twentieth century.
Since 2004, the ground floor has been used as a visitor center called "The Great Yard in Merhavia".
From 1978, the upstairs "Hagoren", a discotheque and pub for the kibbutz youth, operated there, where parties and social gatherings were held. Later, the place was rented as a private entertainment club. On the square and the lawn, in front of the building, holiday events, weddings and musical performances have been held for years.
