Who were the Knights Templar? This lecture series will delve into the history of these warrior monks, an order of knights who gave up everything to defend pilgrims and sacred places. Clad in their iconic white mantles marked with a scarlet cross, these brother knights were the hope of pilgrims traveling the dangerous roads of the Holy Land. All through the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, the Templars thundered across the battlefields of the crusades, often defeating their enemies even when they were greatly outnumbered. Today, we’ll investigate the background of the Knights Templar, and come to understand their place in the history of the Middle Ages.
