Numerous books and articles deal with the Crusader Era in Israel.
Although the majority of the work deals with Jerusalem and Acre-the major cities of
this period-very little research to date has attempted to focus outside these cities in
the area currently referred to as Judea and Samaria. According to our research,
Judea and Samaria was of great importance with a significant influence on
economic life during the time that the Holy Land was ruled by the Crusaders. In
addition to Crusader sites in well-known places such as Jerusalem and Acre there
are numerous ruins from the Crusader era in Judea and Samaria. We propose
developing ‘In the Footsteps of Crusaders’ tourism in Judea and Samaria
