Interesting facts about this location
Dubrovin Farm
Dubrovin Farm was one of the first farms in the Hulah Valley. It was established by Stanislav Dubrovin (1863–1967) who moved to Ottoman Syria with his family in 1903. Dubrovin left Astrakhan and settled in the north of the country near Yesod HaMa'ala. Dubrovin and his family were Subbotniks, Russian Christians who kept seventh-day Sabbath. After their conversion to Judaism, they took Hebrew names. Stanislav became "Yoav", and his wife became "Rachel".
