The artists' village of Ein Hod is located next to the old road from Tel Aviv to Haifa, on a hill overlooking the shores of Atlit and the Crusader fortress. The village was founded in 1953, about five years after the establishment of the state of Israel, following an idea conceived by a group of revolutionary artists led by Marcel Janko: to establish the first artist village in Israel that would provide a supportive, creative and fertile environment for its residents.

The first decades were difficult for the founders, but perseverance, ideals and vision led to the establishment of Ein Hod as the only artist village in Israel - and among the few in the world - whose population is based on artists in all fields of art: from plastic art to music, literature and theater.
