Farradiyya

Farradiyya (Arabic: الفرّاضية, romanized: al-Farrāḍiyyah) was a Palestinian Arab village of 670 located 8 kilometers (5.0 mi) southwest of Safad. In 1949, an Israeli kibbutz called Parod was built atop the ethnically cleansed village. Farradiyya was situated on the southern slopes of Mount Zabud with an average elevation of 375 meters (1,230 ft) above sea level. The Safad–Nazareth highway (Route 866) passed it to the north. Its total land area was 19,747 dunams, of which 25 dunams were built-up areas and 5,365 dunams cultivable.
