Ramat Raziel (Hebrew: רָמַת רָזִיאֵל, lit. 'Raziel Heights') is a moshav in central Israel. Located in the centre of the Jerusalem corridor, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Yehuda Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 659.




History



The village was established in 1948 on land that had belonged to the depopulated Palestinian village of Kasla. It was named after David Raziel, chief commander of the Irgun.
Despite the difficult terrain, the economy was based on farming. In 1988 Eli Ben-Zaken planted vineyards and established Domaine du Castel, an award-winning winery, in Ramat Raziel.
