Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the rise and fall of the Knights Templars, this book delves into their legendary status, military strength, and financial prowess during the Crusades. Established in the early 12th century to safeguard pilgrims, their influence waned by the mid-14th century due to growing wealth and power. Charles G. Addison meticulously details the conspiracy by King Philip IV and Pope Clement V to persecute the Templars for heresy, including the fate of Grand Master Jacques de Molay. The work also highlights the architectural significance of the Temple Church in England.
