Municipal-educational delegation to Magdeburg | 60 years of Israel-Germany diplomatic relations
In 1965, an agreement was signed to establish diplomatic relations between the young State of Israel and post-World War II Germany. Since then, the relationship has grown, and to mark 60 years of foreign relations between the countries, Kiryat Motzkin was invited to Magdeburg, its twin city, for an event to mark the historical connection between the countries. Mayor Tziki Avisar and the director of the Mashmaut Center and Foreign Relations, Dr. Lea Ganor, led the delegation on the historic visit.

The visit of the municipal-educational delegation to Magdeburg began with meetings and discussions about projects between the two cities and possibilities for further cooperation. This was after a twinning agreement was signed between the two cities earlier this year in November. Thus, Kiryat Motzkin is the only city in Israel with which a twinning agreement has been signed with cities in Germany since October 7, 2023.
