The Historical Association: Saladin, Richard the Lionheart & the Siege of Acre 1189-1191

This Historical Association branch lecture explores the Siege of Acre and its place in the Third Crusade, with a focus on Saladin and Richard the Lionheart. The talk is delivered by Professor Jonathan Phillips of Royal Holloway, University of London, and is aimed at anyone with an interest in medieval history, crusading, or the wider history of the Middle Ages.

The event takes place in person at Richmond Library Annexe in Richmond, London. It is a lecture rather than a course, and attendees can simply turn up without booking. Historical Association members are asked to show their membership card, while non-members may attend by paying the door price.
