Kfar Gidon (Hebrew: כְּפַר גִּדְעוֹן, lit.'Gideon Village') is a moshav in northern Israel. Located near Afula, it falls under the jurisdiction of Jezreel Valley Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 363.[1]

History

The moshav was founded in 1923 by immigrants from Transylvania who were members of Hapoel HaMizrachi, and was named after the Biblical figure of Gideon (Judges 7:1).[2] At first the settlement was supposed to be called Moshav Transylvania and it was planned by architect Richard Kauffmann.[3]

In 1956 it split in two co-operative societies; Kfar Gidon (Haredi) and Talmei Gidon (traditional/secular). However, as a result of reforms in the regional council, the village returned to having one administration.
