Marble Plaque Rishon LeZion Founder Eliezer Elhanan Shalit Bronze Frame Burn Portrait of Eliezer Elhanan Shalit 1882
Eliezer Elhanan Shalit was born in Ponovezh, Kovno Governorate, Lithuania. In 1882 Eliezer Elhanan Shalit immigrated to the Land of Israel and became one of the founders of the colony Rishon Letzion. There, in addition to his extensive knowledge in the Torah and new Hebrew literature, he became an expert in agriculture. His vineyards became a model for work procedures: fertilization, tilling, trimming, and grafting. Was the first pioneer in growing olive trees. A selection of his olive varieties was showcased, later on, in an exhibition in Paris where he won first prize. Grew the "Peanut Tree" and Pistacia Vera - a tree indigenous to Northern Syria.
In 1902 he served as deputy chairman of the colony. In 1906 he was a commitee member of the associations "Achuza" and "Rishonia".
Organized sing and dance nights around the bonfire. It has been said about him that he was "a living newspaper", full of humor, teaching Gmara sheets. Prepaired the version of the scroll sent to Moshe Montefiori from Rishon LeZion for his 100th birthday. Having suffered a severe illness, he went to his daughter and son in law living in Berlin. He died there after the beginning of WW1 and was brought to burial there. Many years later, in 1971, his body was brought to Israel and there he found his final resting place, at the top of the hill of the old Rishon LeZion cemetary.
