Important+Places+of+the+Crusades



This is a map of the crusades. It shows the route they took on land, and in the sea. Antioch was an important place of the Crusades because Paul is recorded as having preached his first Christian sermon at a synagogue. Antioch was politically important as well, with a number of larger Roman buildings having been built here.



The Crusaders originated in France and Germany, and worked their way through Italy, Hungry, Byzantine Empire, The Asia Minor, and ended their fight in Jerusalem.
