history

The kibbutz was founded in 1933 by members of the ha-Shōmer ha-Zaʿīr from the then Romanian Bukovina , Bessarabia and Bulgaria . In 1939 a group of children and youth alijahs from National Socialist Germany came to Maʿabarot. After the Second World War , some immigrants from Chile were accepted.

The French cellist and composer Paul Tortelier spent a year in Maʿabarot from 1955, was enthusiastic about the ideology of the kibbutz and wrote his Symphonie d'Israël here in 1956 .

In its founding years, the kibbutz was mainly active in agriculture (cattle farming, poultry farming, orange plantations), but is now mainly known for the production of Materna baby food from dry milk . In 2013, the film group DocView released the documentary Raised Head. (About) life in the kibbutz Maʿabarot . The film tells the life stories of five German Jews who escaped as young people from the Nazis to Palestine in order to build a new state and a new way of life in the Maʿabarot kibbutz.
