On the sign:
סמל אתר הפרדסנות ע"ש מינקוב

בריכת האגירה Water Collection Pool
חלק ממערכת ההשקיה של הפרדס ששימשה גם כבריכת שחייה לילדי רחובות. על הבריכה הזאת כתב הסופר ס. יזהר את הסיפור "רחיצה בבריכה": "אכן, מי שלא יודע טעמה של רחיצה בבריכה צלולה, בצהרי יום צלול, כשזה קצת אסור, וכשהכל מסביב ירוק וכחול - אי אפשר להסביר לו כלום, ממש כשם שלא תועיל אם תבוא אל סומא לומר לו, מה כחול ומה ירוק!"

Translation of the text on the sign:
Symbol of the Minkov Museum

Water Collection Pool
Part of the orchard irrigation system that also served as a swimming pool for the children of Rehovot. The writer S. Yizhar wrote the story "bathing in a pool": "Indeed, those who do not know the taste of bathing in a clear pool, on a clear afternoon, when it is a bit forbidden, and when everything around is green and blue - nothing can be explained to him, just as it would not help if you come to a blind man to tell him, what Blue and what green! "
