some history

Rishon was founded on 31 July 1882 by a group of 10 members of the Zionist group Hovevei Zion from Kharkov, Ukraine. Led by Zalman David Levontin, they purchased 835 acres (3.4 km²) of land south-east of present-day Tel Aviv for this purpose near an Arab village named Eyun Kara. Along with Petah Tikva, it is considered the first Zionist settlement in Palestine and its founders were members of the First Aliya. The land was owned by Tzvi Leventine and was purchased by the "Pioneers of Jewish Settlement Committee" that was formed in Jaffa, the port of arrival for many of the immigrants to the area.

The new settlers faced a lot of difficulties: sandy soil, lack of water, poverty, and lack of agricultural experience. After the digging of the Great Well and a wave of new settlers arriving (members of another Zionist group, the Biluim), the new settlement started to develop. Soon, Baron Edmond James de Rothschild gained control of the settlement and helped develop its agriculture, citrus fruit ("Pri Adar"), and wine industry - Carmel Winery.

Ri’shōn le-Tsiyyōn, which literally means ‘first to Zion’, was a pioneer not only in erecting houses but also in cultural life. The first Hebrew school was founded in Ri’shōn in 1886, as was the first Hebrew kindergarten in 1899. In 1886, construction began on the Ri’shōn winery.

The population numbered 359 in 1890. Five years later it increased to 380, and by 1900 rose to 526.
