Templar of Germany

The Templars of Germany were part of the Knights Templar, a medieval Christian military order founded in the 12th century to protect pilgrims traveling to the Holy Land. The German branch operated mainly in regions like the Holy Roman Empire, focusing on military defense and supporting the Crusades. They established castles, fought in battles, and managed financial activities to support their missions. The order was known for its discipline and organizational strength but faced suppression in the early 14th century due to political and economic pressures, ultimately leading to their disbandment and persecution across Europe.
