Nahalal Cemetery

The Nahalal Cemetery (בית העלמין בנהלל) is the cemetery of the Nahalal moshav in the Jezreel Valley. Since its opening in the 1920s, many of the moshav's residents have been buried there, including the founders of the moshav, members of the Dayan family, several Knesset members, Ilan Ramon and his son Asaf, Meir Shalev, Yehonatan Geffen, and others.

History
The cemetery was opened on Tel Shimron, near the Tamrat cemetery. The first person to be buried there was the mother of one of the founders of the moshav, who chose to bury her on a hill about one and a half kilometers northeast of the moshav.
