Geocache Description:

The cache is located in moshav Bnie Atarot, on road 40. The cache is in the place where the pump house and the well used to be.


Bnie Atarot is a moshave in central Israel, located near Yehud, under the jurisdiction of Hevel Modin Regional council. On the site of Templer colony Wilhelma, which was established in 1902 and named in honor of Welhelm II. During WORLD WAR 2, the German settlers in Mandate Palestine were arrested as enemy nationals and deported by the British. A new settlement was established by farmer residents of the abandoned moshav of Atarot, which had been destroyed by the Arab LEGION, from which it took its name. It remained a farming community and most of the original houses were preserved. In late 1990 a new residential neighborhood was built on the northeastern edge, consisting of private homes.

המקום הוקם על-ידי פליטי מלחמת העצמאות, מהישובים עטרות, נחלים, ובארות יצחק, אליהם

הצטרפו יוצאי שאר-ישוב. חלק עזבו והקימו ישובים משלהם, ובמקומם באו ב-1953 יוצאי קיבוצים

מהפילוג הגדול. המושבה וילהלמה נכבשה במבצע דני יחד עם שדה התעופה והעיר לוד

הטמפלרים עסקו בחקלאות. היו להם שדות תבואה וכרמי ענבים ופרדסים

המטמון נמצא ליד מתחם בריכת המים שכולל בית משאבות, מגדל מים, ובריכת אגירה
