August to September 1157 CE Hama and Shaizar Quake(s)
Tyre was reported to have suffered damage during a
major earthquake that struck the Levantine coast.
According to
Ibn al-Athir,
the earthquake damaged several coastal cities,
including
Sidon,
Beirut, Tripoli, Acre, and
Tyre,
along with numerous
Frankish citadels along the
coast.
A later chronicle by
Ibn Taghri Birdi
describes the same disaster in stronger terms,
stating that Sidon, Beirut, Tripoli, Acre, Tyre,
and the Frankish strongholds were ruined.
