Yehud-Monosson can be viewed from two different perspectives for a stay: parks with recreational facilities and memorial sites with their own history. For planning, it is important to distinguish between a park project and the actual features in עץ האפרסק Park. Tel Yehud Park is planned; עץ האפרסק Park has a training area and a pump track. This lets you choose between the different places according to your interests, rather than treating the park facilities as alike.

Parks: from the planned Tel Yehud Park to the pump track

Tel Yehud Park is planned to cover about 30 dunams in the heart of the city, between Yehuda Halevi Street and Marvad HaKsamim Street. The concept includes playground equipment and activity areas for children and adults. It also provides for special landscaping featuring an olive press and a wine press, additional archaeological finds, a café and seating areas. The plan thus combines physical activity, landscaping and archaeological elements. For planning your visit, the status is crucial: the listed facilities are part of the project and should not be considered amenities that are already available.

עץ האפרסק Park has a different focus. The former fitness garden has been replaced with new equipment, a training area and shade. There is also a covered, illuminated pump track for bicycles and roller skates. This provides two different ways to be active: training on the equipment or in the area, and using the track with a bicycle or roller skates. By comparison, the planned Tel Yehud Park is conceived as a more comprehensive project, with play, recreation and landscaping features. The two parks therefore appeal to different interests, and need not be seen as interchangeable offerings.

Memorial Sites in Yehud-Monosson

The Signal Corps Memorial in Yehud-Monosson was established in 1988 by the Association for the Commemoration of the Fallen Soldiers of the Signal Corps. The parade ground is also part of the memorial site: events for various Corps units are held there. Its founding history and the events offer two distinct points of interest for visitors interested in the history of the Signal Corps.

Another memorial site is in the Neve Monosson neighborhood, part of Yehud-Monosson. The Neve Monosson Fallen Soldiers Memorial stands on the lawn beside the cultural center at 2 HaPninim Street. The cultural center serves as a clear landmark for orientation; the memorial is associated with the Neve Monosson neighborhood. This distinguishes it from the Signal Corps Memorial.

If you would like to visit the Signal Corps Memorial, contact the secretariat of the Association for the Commemoration of the Fallen Soldiers of the Signal Corps in advance and arrange your visit there. Include this step in your plans for visiting the memorial site.

Plan your stay to suit your interests
