4 Hours History tour itinerary for Jerusalem: Check Out The Crusader Tour

• Raymond of Aguilers, who wrote a chronicle of the First Crusade (1096–1099), relates that on the morning of June 7, 1099, the Crusaders reached the summit of Nebi Samuel, from which they saw Jerusalem for the first time. The elated Crusaders fell to the ground and wept with joy, calling it Mons Gaudi, the mount of joy. The same day they reached the walls of Jerusalem.
