Pleikershof, first mentioned in 1436 as "Pleykernhoff", developed from a single farmstead. After a varied history with fires and reconstruction, the estate came into the possession of the Nazi Gauleiter Julius Streicher in the 20th century. After 1945, the farm became the "Nili" kibbutz for Jewish Holocaust survivors before being used for agriculture again. Wikipedia Wikipedia
