The German Colony (HaMoshava HaGermanit) (Hebrew: המושבה הגרמנית, Arabic: الحي الألمانية) was established in Ottoman Haifa in 1868 as a Christian German Templer Colony in Palestine. It was the first of several colonies established by the group in the Holy Land. Others were founded in Sarona near Jaffa, Galilee and Jerusalem.
Some of the original buildings are still surviving today, and the area continues to be visited, lived in, and in use.[1][2]
