History


The village was established in 1956 under the name Uman, and was later renamed in honour of the Jewish Canadian philanthropist Samuel Bronfman.

The village was originally founded as an agricultural moshav. In 2013, the village population expanded eastward, converting agricultural lands into a residential neighborhood of an additional 280 households.[2]
