Ridley Scot's recent Hollywood blockbuster 'The Kingdom of Heaven' starring
Orlando Bloom, has numerous scenes based in and around the crusader castle at
Kerak, although the castle itself was not used during filming.
While it could hardly be described as beautiful, Kerak is an impressive example
of the Crusaders' architectural military genius.
The best preserved halls and passageways are located underground and can only
be reached through a massive door – ask at the ticket desk.
The city of Kerak was the ancient capital of Moab. During Roman times it was
known as Characmoba.
