The King Who Took His Crown

Baldwin III: The King Who Took His Crown

Baldwin III had already inherited a kingdom under pressure. But becoming the true ruler of Jerusalem would require more than wearing a crown.

As the Second Crusade failed and Nur al-Din rose to power, Baldwin faced political conflict at home, growing threats across the Crusader States, and a kingdom that needed a strong leader.

Then came a struggle for control—and a major military campaign that could change Baldwin's reputation forever.

How did the young king finally prove himself? Listen to the full episode until the end to discover the story.
