The siege of Acre took place in May 1104. It was of great importance for the consolidation of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, which had been founded only a few years earlier. With the help of a Genoese fleet, King Baldwin I (r. 1100–1118) forced the surrender of the important port city after a siege that lasted only twenty days. Although all defenders and residents wishing to leave the city had been assured by the king that they would be free to leave, taking their chattels with them, many of them had been massacred by the Genoese as they left the city. Moreover, the attackers had also sacked the city itself.

| - Die Belagerung von Akkon ereignete sich im Mai 1104. Ihr erfolgreicher Ausgang – nach einem im Jahr davor fehlgeschlagenen Eroberungsversuch – war für die Konsolidierung des erst wenige Jahre zuvor gegründeten Königreichs Jerusalem von großer Bedeutung. Mit Hilfe einer genuesischen Flotte hatte König Balduin I. (reg. 1100–1118) die Übergabe der wichtigen Hafenstadt nach einer nur 20 Tage dauernden Belagerung erzwungen. Obwohl allen Verteidigern und Einwohnern, welche die Stadt verlassen wollten, vom König freier Abzug unter Mitnahme ihrer beweglichen Güter zugesichert worden war, waren viele von ihnen beim Ausmarsch aus der Stadt von den Kreuzfahrern massakriert worden. Im Anschluss daran hatten die Kreuzfahrer auch die Stadt selbst geplündert. (de)
