What importance would geography have for the religions Christianity, Judaism and Islam? Any similar importances? I know that they all have a sacred city. But is there anything else?

I can only speak for Christianity. The Holy Land is the only really significant place, but there are places of interest to Christians around the Globe, and probably the same with Judaism, and Islam. For example if you are Catholic, Vatican City is important. If you are Jewish, I would think in order to keep the memory of the Holocaust prevalent places like Aushwitz would be important. But the only really Biblically important place is the Holy Land, and Jerusalem, because there are prophecies yet to be fulfilled about those places, and that eventually will become the center of God's Kingdom on Earth. But there are lots of historically significant places all throughout the Middle East.
