Belvoir Fortress
Belvoir Fortress is a Crusader fortress on a ridge above the Jordan Valley. Its near-symmetrical defenses and commanding outlook explain how a compact castle controlled a strategic frontier.
Why go
Its near-symmetrical defenses and commanding outlook explain how a compact castle controlled a strategic frontier. Look for a deep moat isolates the fortress core, then twin defensive walls create a concentric plan. The site is exposed to sun and wind; allow time for the approach road and the walk from parking.
