Historical testimony of the Crusader era

Translated by Google •

February 4, 2025

The limestone from the ditches was used to build the Crusader castle of Montfort. The castle's protective walls were five to seven meters thick. There was a castle chapel, a residential tower, several halls and a cistern that supplied the residents with water. An outbuilding belonging to the castle was found in the valley. This was most likely used as a water mill at times, but also as a guest house or hospital. The Teutonic Order had made it their mission to care for the sick, which they demonstrably also did in Montfort.
