Ramat David (Hebrew: רָמַת דָּוִד, lit. 'David Heights') is a kibbutz in northern Israel.[2] Located in the Jezreel Valley near Ramat David Airbase, it falls under the jurisdiction of Jezreel Valley Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 582.[1]

History

The kibbutz was established in 1926, and was named after David Lloyd George, who was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom when the Balfour Declaration was made. The German-Jewish architect Richard Kauffmann drew up plans for the design of Ramat David in 1931.[3]

The British author Roald Dahl landed his RAF Hurricane at the British Mandate airstrip at Ramat David early in 1941.[4] He describes the German Jewish refugee children living there at that time in his autobiography Going Solo.[5]

On 22 May 1948 Egyptian planes attacked the airbase, damaging and destroying a number of British Royal Air Force planes.[6]
