History

The kibbutz was established on 2 November 1946 by Jewish immigrants from Czechoslovakia, Germany and Austria. It was named in honour of Mordechai Rozovsky, a Zionist activist in Argentina. Aside from agriculture, the kibbutz is the home of Teva Naot, a shoe factory with branches all over Israel.
