History of Palestine (region)Tegart forts
Metzudat Koach (Hebrew: מצודת כ"ח) (also Nabi Yusha fort) is a British Mandate police fort built during the 1936–39 Arab revolt in Palestine. On the grounds of the fort are a memorial monument and a museum founded in 2014. The Metzudat Koach Memorial commemorates 28 Israeli soldiers who fell in battle during the conquest of the fort in 1948. Metzudat Koah is located in the Upper Galilee near the ruins of Al-Nabi Yusha' a Palestinian village depopulated by Israeli forces in 1948. The Shia shrine of Nabi Yusha ("Prophet Joshua") remains largely intact. Metzudat Koach is listed as part of the Israel National Trail.
