Hall of the Crusader Knights

Hall of the Crusader Knights

Located within the Acre citadel, this exhibition space is situated in a building formerly used by a knightly order during the Crusader period. Visitors go here to walk through the medieval halls once used by knights and pilgrims and to view the architectural remains of the city's medieval fortifications.

Getting There

The site is located within the Old City of Acre. Since the city center is compact and largely pedestrianized, it is accessible on foot from most central points. Depending on your starting location within the Old City, the walk typically takes 5 to 15 minutes.

Duration of Visit

Allow approximately 45 to 90 minutes to explore the halls and the surrounding citadel area.

When to Visit

To avoid the largest crowds, visit during weekday mornings. The site is outdoors and semi-covered, so avoid the peak heat of mid-summer afternoons. It can get crowded during national holidays and peak tourist seasons.

Nearby Attractions

  • Museum of the Underground Prisoners (0km)
  • Hospitaller commandery of Saint-Jean-d'Acre (0.1km)
  • Akko El Shazliya Mosque (0.1km)
