The Knights Templar were a medieval military order that fought in the Crusades and became very influential and wealthy. They were suppressed by the French king and the pope in the early 14th century and accused of heresy and other crimes. Since then, they have been the subject of many legends, myths, and conspiracy theories. Some of the most popular esoteric theories surrounding the Knights Templar are:
They discovered treasure and secret knowledge while digging beneath the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, where they were based for many years. Some of the alleged items they found include the Holy Grail, the Ark of the Covenant, and parts of the True Cross.
They were part of a secret society called the Priory of Sion, which claimed to guard the bloodline of Jesus Christ and Mary Magdalene. According to this theory, the Templars knew that Jesus and Mary were married and had children, and that their descendants were the rightful rulers of Europe.
They cursed the French king and the pope who ordered their arrest and execution, and caused their downfall and the end of their dynasties. The last Grand Master of the Templars, Jacques de Molay, is said to have invoked God’s wrath on his enemies as he was burned at the stake in Paris in 1314.
They survived their persecution and went underground, forming new branches and orders in different countries. Some of the groups that claim to be the successors or heirs of the Templars include the Freemasons, the Rosicrucians, and the Illuminati.
These are just some of the many esoteric theories that have been proposed about the Knights Templar over the centuries.
