Saladin
Saladin .
They were Christians so they wanted to get the Holy Land (Jerusalem in Palestine) back from the Muslim people.
Crusades used to occupy Jerusalem for times, but the Turk(Muslim) always get it back
In the third crusade Richard the lion heart was sent by the pope to win back Jerusalem from Saladin, the Muslim leader.
The Muslim leader who recaptured Jerusalem during the Crusades was Saladin, also known as Salah ad-Din. He successfully led the Muslim forces against the Crusaders and reclaimed the city in 1187 after the Battle of Hattin. Saladin is celebrated for his chivalry and his efforts to unite the Muslim territories against the Crusader states. His victory marked a significant turning point in the Crusades, leading to the Third Crusade.
Because Salahadin was the sultan of Syria back in time. Also the sultan in Egypt, Yemen and some other places. He was a great warrior, with the biggest heart a warrior has ever had, he was fair, even to his enemies. He was a Islam-believer
The trips to free Jerusalem historically refer to the Crusades, a series of religious wars initiated by European Christians from the 11th to the 13th centuries. The primary goal was to reclaim Jerusalem and the Holy Land from Muslim control, with the First Crusade launched in 1096 resulting in the capture of the city in 1099. Subsequent Crusades aimed to maintain Christian control and respond to Muslim advances, but ultimately, the Crusader states in the region declined, and Jerusalem fell back into Muslim hands by 1187 under Saladin. The Crusades significantly influenced Christian-Muslim relations and shaped the political landscape of the medieval world.
The Crusades were a series of military campaigns during the time of Medieval England against the Muslims of the Middle East. In 1076, the Muslims had captured Jerusalem - the most holy of holy places for Christians. Jesus had been born in nearby Bethlehem and Jesus had spent most of his life in Jerusalem. He was crucified on Calvary Hill, also in Jerusalem. There was no more important place on Earth than Jerusalem for a true Christian which is why Christians called Jerusalem the "City of God".However, Jerusalem was also extremely important for the Muslims as Muhammad, the founder of the Muslim faith, had been there and there was great joy in the Muslim world when Jerusalem was captured. A beautiful dome - called the Dome of the Rock - was built on the rock where Muhammad was said to have sat and prayed and it was so holy that no Muslim was allowed to tread on the rock or touch it when visiting the Dome.Therefore the Christian fought to get Jerusalem back while the Muslims fought to keep Jerusalem. These wars were to last nearly 200 years

He went back from the Jordan to reproach Herod in Jerusalem.
Richard the Lionheart never actually recaptured Jerusalem. Although he played a crucial role in the Third Crusade (1189-1192) and achieved significant victories, including the Battle of Arsuf in 1191, he was unable to take the city itself from Saladin. After negotiating a settlement, Richard secured Christian access to Jerusalem but did not regain full control of the city. Ultimately, Jerusalem remained under Muslim control after the conclusion of the Crusade.
The Crusades were a series of wars waged by Christian Europe to seize Jerusalem and the Holy Land. The Europeans won the First Crusade (1095 - 1099 CE), in which they killed many Muslim and Jewish civilians. However, they lost the following Crusades, particularly thanks to Saladin who reconquered Jerusalem and the Holy Land in 1187 CE.
