Kafr Bir'im

Kafr Bir'im, also Kefr Berem (Arabic: كفر برعم‎), was an Arab Christian and Maronite village in Mandatory Palestine, located in modern Northern Israel, 4 kilometers (2.5 mi) south of the Lebanese border and 11.5 kilometers (7.1 mi) northwest of Safed. The village was situated 750 meters (2,460 ft) above sea level, with a church overlooking it at an elevation of 752 meters (2,467 ft). The church was built on the ruins of an older church destroyed in the earthquake of 1837. In 1945, 710 people lived in Kafr Bir'im. By 1992, the only standing structure was the church and belltower.
