Migdal Afek

About

Migdal Afek, also Migdal Tsedek (Tzedek, Zedek), is a national park on the southeastern edge of Rosh HaAyin, Israel. The ruins of a fortified manor house built by a sheikh during the 19th century, among which remains of the Crusader castle of Mirabel can be seen, are today known in Hebrew as Migdal Afek or Migdal Tsedek. It is the site of the depopulated Palestinian village of Majdal Yaba.
