Map: Crusader sites

For FHE tonight, Zee (16) and Yum (9) taught us (very, very briefly) about the Crusades and some of the Crusader sites in Israel.




The sites on the map are but a small representation of the numerous sites in Israel. They chose to map Akko (Acre), Arsuf (Apollonia), Belveer, Beth Gibelin, Tiberias, Montfort, Tower of David, and Caesarea Maritima.

Monfort Fortress

Zee (16) is researching Crusader sites for our trip (hopefully still on, even with the corona craziness), and we just came across the Montfort Fortress. Now both Zee and I are determined to hike out to it. It's so beautiful!

It looks like it is a hike, so probably the whole family--especially Grandma and Gee--won't go, but it also says there is a great view area where you can see it. So maybe some will go and some won't. But it looks so amazing and fun!
