Places to visit in in Acre Languages: en, he, ru

After several unsuccessful attempts to destroy the wall, Napoleon concluded that he needs more powerful cannons and decided to bring them with the help of general Perrie's ships. But his fleet controlled the area between Rhodes and Acre to prevent ottomans troops from the island come to Acre. At the same time, the Ottoman ruler of Damascus marched with his army towards Acre and sieged the small fortress on mount Tabor, where French soldiers guarded the strategic passage in the valley. In Acre, after several attempts to leave the besieged city by some garrisons and Jazzar himself, the Jazzar advisor, and his right hand, the noble Jew from Acre, Haim Farhi, organized some arrangements that very surprised the attackers. All involved sides were prepared for the next stage.

Acre, Israel. The city walls

The length of the city walls that we will pass is only a few hundred meters. But Acre talks about herself in every centimeter. The story is about how a formidable ruler emerged from a small village in the mountains, how Napoleon can be defeated, what treasures are hidden in the fortified wall, how to eat fish properly and how life is stronger than anything, everywhere and always, even on the city wall.
