Order of the Knights Templar / TEMPLARS

Order of the Knights Templar

The Knights Templar incorporates about two centuries during the Middle Ages, from the Order’s founding in the early 12th century, to when it was disbanded in the early 14th century. The Knights Templar were the elite fighting force of their day, highly trained, well-equipped and highly motivated. The Templar warriors were forbidden from retreating in battle, unless outnumbered three to one, and even then only by order of their commander, or if the Templar flag went down. Jealous of the Templars’ wealth and power, At dawn on Friday, October 13, 1307 the Templars were arrested and later to be tortured. In 1312, under extreme pressure from King Philip IV, Pope Clement V issued an edict officially dissolving the Order. There are still questions as to what became of all of the tens of thousands of Templars across Europe. There had been 15,000 “Templar Houses”, and an entire fleet of ships. In 1307 the Templars used a fleet of 18 ships at La Rochelle to escape arrest in France. The fleet with its treasures and knights disappeared.
