During the 19th century several explorers visited Baalbek. Usually they made drawings of the site which later were published. Here below some pictures, every time showing the same building, though not every time taken from the same viewpoint.
The pictures below have been taken from:
- Voyage en Orient: Voyage de la Syrie. Voyage de l’Asie Mineure,; Léon de Laborde; 1837.
- Afbeeldingen van het heilige land bestaande uit veertig gezigten.; Bernatz; 1839.
- Excursion Daguerriennes, published by Lerebours in 1841.
- The Holy Land, Syria, Idumea, Arabia, Egypt & Nubia.; David Roberts; 1855-56.
- Baalbek; Ergebnisse der Ausgrabungen und Untersuchungen in den Jahren 1898 bis 1905.; Theodor Wiegand; 1821-15.
