20.08.2021

The Holy Land has been ruled by different powers, states and religious leaders in different historical periods. The Holy Land has always attracted pilgrims, "soldiers of fortune", and is still a place of confrontation and struggle.

Throughout the Middle Ages, Christians repeatedly tried to return to Jerusalem and control the Holy Land". The crusaders left many traces here, including castles and fortresses, standing along the roads leading to the eternal city of Jerusalem.

Shishi Shabbat Israeli organized a 4- hour bus excursion from Tel Aviv to these places, led by Dima Esterkin. The participants of out tour traveled from fortress to fortress like 11th century pilgrims, learning about the most significant events and battles, in Latrun, Nebi Samuel and the fire-surviving community of Tzuba.
