Nesher

Nesher is a city on Mount Carmel, adjoining from the east to Haifa. It is surrounded by the Mount Carmel National Park and is close to the Technion and the University of Haifa.

The name of the city is translated as "eagle".

Nesher was founded in 1925. After proclamation of the State of Israel, the population of the city began to grow rapidly due to repatriates. At first, life here was very difficult.

Only in 1952 Nesher had electricity and water pipes. After that, the settlement began to develop rapidly.

Nesher received the status of the city in 1995.
