המכללה לחינוך על שם דוד ילין בסיס לפעילות "ההגנה"
ארגון "ההגנה" הוקם בשנת 1920 והיה הצבא העברי המחתרתי שהיה נתון למרות ההנהגה הציונית הנבחרת בארץ.
לוחמי "ההגנה" עמדו על משמר הגנת הישוב היהודי בארץ ישראל מאז היווסדו ובזמן מאורעות תרפ"ט (1929), מאורעות תרצ"ו-תרצ"ט (1939-1936) ומלחמת העצמאות, עד ש"ההגנה" הפכה לצה"ל ב-1948.
המכללה לחינוך על שם דוד ילין, השוכנת במקום זה מאז 1928, נוסדה בשנת תרע"ד (1913) כ"בית המדרש העברי למורים". תלמידים של מוסד חינוכי זה התנדבו ל"הגנה" מאז 1920, והמכללה מילאה תפקיד חשוב בפעולות הארגון ובמבצעיו כל השנים.
המקום שימש כמטה אזורי, בסיס יציאה לפעילות שונות,מקום ריכוז, בסיס לאימונים והדרכה וכן הוחזק בו נשק.

Translation of the text on the sign:
[The Hebrew text is more detailed, below is its translation]
The David Yelin College of Education, a basis for the "Hagana" activity
The "Haganah" organization was established in 1920 and was the underground Hebrew army that was under the command of the elected Zionist leadership in Israel.
The fighters of the "Haganah" stood guard for the protection of the Jewish settlement in the Land of Israel since its founding and during the events of 1929, the events of 1936-1939 and the War of Independence, until the "Haganah" became the IDF in 1948.
The David Yelin College of Education, located in this location since 1928, was founded in 1913 as the "Hebrew Beit Midrash for Teachers". Students of this educational institution have been volunteering for the "Haganah" since 1920, and the college has played an important role in the organization’s activities and operations throughout the years
The place was used as a regional headquarters, a departure base for various activities, a place of concentration, a base for training and instruction, and weapons were kept there.
