History

The moshav was founded in 1948 by residents of Kfar Yavetz, a village which was evacuated during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War. The residents were immigrants and refugees from Yemen.

In 1967, Geulei Teiman was split into a moshav and a housing project, but the two neighborhoods were reunited in 1992.
