The sign is rectangular but its head is designed according to the silhouette of the old building of the Gymnasia Herzliya, which serves as a logo of the Council for the Preservation of Heritage Sites in Israel

The house is also known as the "Castle of the Valley" because of its size and splendor

Translation of the text on the sign:
Symbol of the Council for the Preservation of Israeli Heritage Sites

Beit Eliyahu and Dr. Miriam Blumenfeld
Established in 1912


Blunfeld was the first to purchase land in the valley (1,000 dunams) on which he built his house (planning: Baerwald), and his wife’s clinic, which also served the surrounding Arabs. Many of the people of the second aliyah worked on his farm. Eliyahu was an active public figure in the moshavah and in the valley.
The house was restored in 1973 by Yoel Zafarir.
