Margaliot was established over the Lebanese town of Hunin, which is part of the Seven Lebanese Villages across the Lebanese/Palestinian border, in 1951 by Jewish immigrants from Yemen and Iraq. It was renamed after Chaim Margaliot Klaverisky, who headed the Jewish Colonization Association in the Galilee in the early twentieth century, and participated in the establishment of several Jewish settlements in the region. Today the residents number around 300-400, most of them being Jews from Iranian Kurdistan. Today the name Hunin refers to the whole area covering moshav Margaliot and the kibbutz Misgav Am. The town of Margaliot, is however still referred to as Hunin by neighboring Arab states (especially Lebanon and Palestine). At the side of the road leading to the moshav, Château Neuf (New Castle) stands. A Crusader fortress which was erected during the Crusader period (1099-1291 CE), that was used during the fighting against Muslim. From Château Neuf, it's possible to view Nimrod Fortress and several other fortresses in the area.
