The Crusades 1096 -1291
-
Jerusalem is a very holy city for Jews, Christians, and Muslims. - Christ's Empty Tomb - Dome of the Rock - Wailing Wall
-
Jerusalem and Palestine came under Muslim rule in the 7th century, but Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived together relatively peacefully. All faiths made pilgrimages there. • 11th century, the Seljuk Turks, a rising Muslim power had gained control of Palestine. • The Seljuk Turks came from Central Asia. Had taken over Baghdad from the Abbasids in 1055. • Travel for pilgrimages to Holy Land was reportedly growing unsafe. • Byzantine emperor in Constantinople was worried that they would expand into Constantinople. In 1095, the emperor asked Pope Urban for help.
-
Pope Urban called a council and called for a crusade to drive Muslims back and reclaim Jerusalem. • "Jerusalem is now held captive by the enemies of Christ and is subjected, by those who do not know God, to the worship of the heathen (unconverted). She seeks… to be liberated, and (implores) you to come to her aid. On whom, therefore, rests the labor of avenging these wrongs and of recovering this territory, if not upon you?" Pope Urban, 1095…listeners reportedly responded "God wills it! God wills it!" • Pope Urban had goals of reuniting Eastern and Western Christians under his rule, helping the Byzantines could possibly help him.

Reasons to go on a crusades: • Entry to Heaven for all who joined the fight. • Merchants might earn money in trade • Nobles might gain estates in the new kingdoms established in the Holy Land.
-
First Crusade (1096-1099) 30,000 –45,000 crusaders. Only about 4,000 true "knights," the rest were foot soldiers, cooks, archers, women, and priests. They fought their way through modern day Turkey and finally captured Jerusalem in 1099. The Christians massacred Muslims and Jews throughout the city. Survivors were sold into slavery. They established four crusader kingdoms, temporarily spreading Europe's feudal system to the Holy Land.
-
Second Crusade (1146-1148) Muslims started uniting to defeat the crusaders and captured one of the crusader kingdoms, Edessa. Christians were angered by this and mounted the Second Crusade, but they were defeated.
-
Between the 2nd and 3rd crusades: • Salah-al-Din, had united Muslims in Egypt, Syria, and lands to the east. • Horns of Hattin • Crusader army of 20,000 was exhausted from marching through the desert. When they camped at night the Muslim soldiers led by Salah-al-Din surrounded them and set fire to the valley and then attacked. Most were killed or taken captive, but Salah-al-Din guaranteed the safety of the fleeing pilgrims, released husbands from captivity, and gave gift to widows and orphans. • He took back Jerusalem. • He didn't kill his prisoners, like the crusaders. He freed many captives, or sold them for ransom. Some became slaves.
-
Third Crusade (1189-1192) or the Crusade of Kings King Richard I or England (Richard the Lionheart) led the fight against Salah-al-Din to take back Jerusalem. At one point, when the two sides were trying to make an agreement, King Richard got impatient and killed all 2700 of his Muslim prisoners. By September 1192, both armies were weak from battle and so Richard and Salah-al-Din signed a peace treaty. The crusaders kept some cities along the coast of Palestine. Muslims agreed to let Christian pilgrims enter Jerusalem.
-
Fourth Crusade (1202-1204) Merchants of Venice wanted to strengthen their trade routes and sought to install the next Byzantine emperor. The crusaders went to Constantinople and tried to install a new emperor, and when the people rebelled, they pillaged the city in what's called "the Sack of Constantinople." Burned, stole, desecrated "How shall I begin to tell of the deeds done by these wicked men? They trampled the images underfoot instead of adoring them. They threw the relics of the martyrs into filth… They broke into bits the sacred altar of Santa Sophia, and distributed it among the soldiers. When the sacred vessels and the silver and gold ornaments were to be carried off, they brought up mules and saddle horses inside the church itself." –Nicetas Choniates, 1204
-
