Shekhanya

Shekhanya (Hebrew: שְׁכַנְיָה) is a community settlement in northern Israel.

Located in the Galilee between Karmiel and Shefar'am, it falls under the jurisdiction of Misgav Regional Council.

This clan was one of the twenty-four priestly divisions and had its residence in the nearby settlement of Kabul.

[2] Shekhanya was established in 1980 as part of the Lookouts in the Galilee plan to increase Jewish settlement.

The founders were a group of twelve Americans who had immigranted from Chicago, New York City and Baltimore in 1975 and aimed to create an industrial village.
