History
Givat Yeshayahu was established in 1958 by immigrants from Hungary, members of the Jewish youth movement HaNoar HaTzioni and was named after Yeshayahu Press, a prominent researcher. It was built on the land of the depopulated Palestinian village of 'Ajjur.[2]
In 2016, ancient Roman milestones from Highway 38 were moved to an archaeological park on the outskirts of Givat Yeshayahu.[3]
Givat Yeshayahu, surrounded by wineries and ancient wine presses, operates a factory that produces raisins although most raisins in Israel today are imported from California.[4]
