Abrasha Park

Abrasha Park sits on the highest point of the Old Jaffa hill, easily identified by the large, square stone arch known as the Gate of Faith. This sculpture, created by Daniel Kafri between nineteen seventy-three and nineteen seventy-five, is carved from Galilee stone and depicts biblical scenes including the sacrifice of Isaac and Jacob’s dream. The park is named for Avraham Schechterman, who served as deputy mayor of Tel Aviv in the nineteen fifties and advocated for the development of Jaffa.
