The Templars' Tunnel

The Templars were a military-monastic order who – in the name of the pope – aided pilgrims and the ailing coming from Europe to visit the holy sites of the Land of Israel. 

 The tunnel is 150 meters long and it extends from the Templars fortress in the west to the city's port in the east.

The tunnel was discovered in 1994. The Acre Development Company, in collaboration with the Antiquities Authority,cleared away the dirt and made the tunnel available to visitors .
