Knights Templar, the Poor Fellow - Soldiers of Chr*st and of the Temple of Solomon, was maybe the most famous of the Christian military orders. It was created in the aftermath of the First Crusade of 1096. Armed with daggers, swords and shields, members of the Order played a key part in many battles of the Crusades. This was possible because they were both monks and soldiers, making them one of the earliest warrior monks in the Western world. The Order's infrastructure innovated many techniques that are the foundation of modern banking. Being almost millennium ahead of their time the Order gained wealth and power throughout Europe during two centuries in the Middle Ages. In 1307 King Philip IV of France had French Knights Templars arrested and burned at the stake. The speed of their disappearance has led to several Knights Templar legends.
