Henry II of Cyprus, commanding a fleet,…

1286 CE

Henry II of Cyprus, commanding a fleet, attacks Acre, defended by the late Charles' lieutenant Hugh Pelerin, and the city is captured on July 29, 1286.

Henry has himself crowned King of Jerusalem here on August 15, 1286, but returns to Cyprus and appoints his uncle Philip of Ibelin as Bailiff in his absence.

By this time, Acre is one of the few coastal cities remaining in the remnant of the Kingdom of Jerusalem.
