The Israelite city of Jericho was built with two human sacrifices. Hiel made a sacrifice to God of his oldest son for the foundation of the city and of his youngest son for the gates to the city.
1 Kings 16:34: "In his days did Hiel the Bethelite build Jericho: he laid the foundation thereof in Abiram his firstborn, and set up the gates thereof in his youngest son Segub, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Joshua the son of Nun."
Other human sacrifices performed in Judah are reported, for example, in the time of King Ahaz (8th century BCE; 2 Kings 16:3) and King Manasseh (7th century BCE; 2 Kings 21:6).

What city was built with two human sacrifices?
You may be referring to Jericho, as in 1 Kings 16:34. If so, you've made two mistakes. Firstly, no literal human sacrifice was perpetrated. Rather, the transgressor (Hiel) lost his sons as they died of "natural" causes (Rashi commentary), in punishment for his stubbornness in continuing to transgress (he rebuilt Jericho despite Joshua's imprecation). See also Joshua 6:26, which clearly predicts the event, centuries before Hiel's lifetime.The second mistake is that more than two of his sons died, even though only two are named explicitly.The Hebrew name of Jericho comes from the word for smell, because of the abundant fragrant plant-species in the area (Rashi commentary, Talmud Berakhot 43a, quoting the ancient Josephus).
