The article describes the events that led to the fall of the Kingdom of Jerusalem and the role in holding the position of Christians at the Holy Sepulcher, played by the penultimate ruler of this Crusader state in the East — King Baudouin (Baldwin) IV. The author examines some historical preconceptions implying the guilt of the “Leper King” in the fall of Christian states and based on the chronicle of William of Tire shows that Baudouin was a much stronger ruler, warrior and diplomat than is commonly believed
