The Lordship of Sidon was one of the four major fiefdoms of the Kingdom of Jerusalem,〔According to the 13th-century writer John of Ibelin〕 one of the Crusader States. However, in reality, it appears to have been much smaller than the others and had the same level of significance as several neighbors, such as Toron and Beirut, which were sub-vassals. Sidon was captured in December, 1110 and given to Eustace I Grenier. The lordship was a coastal strip on the Mediterranean Sea between Tyre and Beirut. It was conquered by Saladin in 1187 and remained in Muslim hands until it was restored to Christian control by German Crusaders in the Crusade of 1197. Julien Grenier sold it to the Knights Templar in the 13th century, but it was later destroyed by the Mongols in 1260 after the Battle of Ain Jalut and its ruins were captured by the Mamluks. One of the vassals of the lordship was the Lordship of the Shuf. ==Lords of Sidon== * Eustace I Grenier (1110-1123) * Gerard Grenier (1123-1171) * Renaud Grenier (1171-1187, titular from then) * ''Conquered by Saladin, 1187-1197'' * Renaud Grenier (restored, 1197-1202) * Balian I Grenier (1202-1239) * Julian Grenier (1239-1260, titular from then) * ''Sold to the Knights Templar'' (1260) * ''Julian Grenier'' (titular, 1260-1275) * ''Balian II Grenier'' (titular, 1275-1277) * ''Philip of Lusignan'' (titular, c. 1460) * ''Phoebus of Lusignan'' (titular, bef.
