Treaty of Ramla

The Treaty of Ramla, signed in 1192, was an agreement between the Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem and Saladin, the Muslim leader. It allowed Christian pilgrims access to holy sites and established a temporary truce, with Jerusalem remaining under Muslim control but open to Christians. The treaty effectively ended the third Crusade's hostilities, enabling coexistence and trade between Christians and Muslims in the region. Though it was a peace arrangement, it was fragile and temporary, reflecting the complex political and religious tensions of the era.
