Ein Iron (Hebrew: עֵין עִירוֹן, lit. Spring of Iron) is a moshav in northern Israel. Located in the eastern Sharon plain to the north-east of Hadera, it falls under the jurisdiction of Menashe Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 452.
The village was established in 1934 by immigrants of the Second Aliyah, mainly Polish Jews, later joined by German Jews.[1] Its name is derived from the fact that it overlooks Nahal Iron.
