The tomb of King Herod the Great was found in the ruins of Masada. Or as it is often termed Herodium. The tomb was discovered by Israeli archeologist Netzer from the University of Jerusalem in 2007.
The Romans besieged Jerusalem. The siege was long. The Romans tried to negotiate surrender, but the Zealots prevented the people of Jerusalem from surrendering. When the city was taken, the Romans destroyed it and the Temple. A large number of people were killed and 97,000 were enslaved and taken to Rome. The Romans then took Masada, the last stronghold of resistance by the Sicarii in a fortification on top of a table mountain. The Sicarii burnt the place and committed mass suicide when the Romans were about to take Masada.
If you mean Herod the Great, he lived mainly in Jerusalem which was his capital. However, as he was a great builder, he had palaces all over the country and also at the city of Caesarea. He also built the retreat atop Masada.
