In the "Generation of the Fathers and the Prophets" book from 1537, Benjamin's tomb is described in this area, called there "Saraka", probably after the nearby burial site.

Until 1948, the site was within the Arab village of Kfar Saba, and on May 13, 1948, the area was captured within two hours by the Alexandroni Brigade (Operation Medina).

Today the building is used by a group of Breslav Hasidim who operate the place and study sacred texts.
