Founded in 1119 to safeguard Christian pilgrims, the Order quickly evolved into a formidable military force—winning key Crusader battles, erecting impregnable fortresses from Jerusalem to Acre, and pioneering financial networks that let nobles deposit silver in Europe and withdraw funds in the Levant. Backed by papal privileges, the Templars amassed vast estates, a fleet of ships, and influence that stretched from Portugal to the Baltic. Yet their meteoric power sparked suspicion. On Friday, 13 October 1307, King Philip IV of France seized Templar leaders on charges of heresy and idolatry; intense trials, torture-extracted confessions, and papal pressure culminated in the Order’s dissolution in 1312 and Grand Master Jacques de Molay’s execution in 1314. Although their treasure vanished, the Templars’ innovations in banking, architecture, and knightly discipline endured—fueling legends that still captivate historians, conspiracy theorists, and pop culture alike.
