Beit Itin in Haifa - from residences to a hospital and a school • Dr. David Bar On

(live here with story building) - Beit Itin is located at 3 Shmariahu Levin St. in Hadar HaCarmel, close to the Technion building.


Beit Itin

The house was built in 1919-1920 for the family of Yehuda Itin, a rich merchant and public figure who immigrated to Israel from Russia. The house is built in an eclectic (small) style, combining design elements from the West and the East. It is a two-story house, built of stone and a tiled roof. Its windows are decorated with beautiful stone ornaments and in one of its corners rises a tower that distinguishes this house from the other houses in the vicinity.

Gadlahio Wilbushevich

The house was designed by Gadlihu Wilbushevich, a Russian-born engineer and architect, one of the pioneers of Hebrew industry and construction in Israel, a member of the "Zion Lovers" movement. He was also the one who oversaw the construction of the nearby Technion building.

From residence to hospital and school

The Itin family lived in the building for only a short time. In 1922, following requests from the Hadassah organization, the family agreed to leave the house in favor of converting it into a hospital of this organization. This began a period of 20 years, in which the building was used as a hospital (1922-1942). First of "Hadassa" and then as the municipal "Rothschild" hospital.

During the struggle against the "White Paper" the hospital was used to hide the "children of Tehran" as well as the survivors of the British deportation ship "Patria". With the move of Rothschild Hospital to Golomb Street, the building was used for various educational institutions: a school for nurses, a school for commerce "B'Maale" and a school "Ancori".
As of 2017, the building serves as the home of the "El Hiwar" Arab school.

  1. thank you for your response. It turns out that the information on Google - that the hospital operated between 1922-1942 - is incorrect!

  2. Thank you Dr. Bar On. I was born there in March 1948, during the War of Liberation, and my late mother gave birth to me at the entrance to the building, because the hospital was full of wounded.
    We lived on Ben Yehuda St., and later I studied there in the 9th grade in secretarial and rabbinical studies.
    Enjoy reading your articles about my childhood.

  3. thank you for your response. If so, Wikipedia is out of date.

  4. I was born there at the end of 1944. It says that it operated as a hospital until 1942.

  5. During my studies at the Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning, (around 1980) which still remained in the historic Hadar building (Mishken Hamedetak today), because the office of the architect Giura Ben Dov, who was also part of the teaching staff at the faculty, was in the building.

    • Thank you for your response, Wikipedia did not know about my friend Giura Ben Dov...

  6. All the best to you my friend David Bar-on. Kudos to you for the article about Beit Itin. Shalom and blessed Sabbath. You promised me, David, a visit to me in the village of Dalyit al-Carmel. Today, the Sabbath, all the people of Israel came to visit me in Dalyit al-Carmel.

  7. thank you for your response. This information does not appear on Wikipedia!

  8. This building was also used as an external Ort school for adults where I studied in the years 81-83.

  9. There is no EPA for preservation in Haifa at all, and everything done in the preservation department of the Haifa municipality infringes on the rights of the owners of houses that have undergone a preservation survey. Haifa residents must not surrender to the municipality, you must sue it because as soon as there is a restriction on your house as a result of preservation, the municipality must compensate you, that is the law, but Leave in Haifa there are other laws with such a mayor.

  10. Very interesting...for many years I passed there every day on the way to the Bahadar maritime school
