The Templar Code

The Templar Code refers to a set of rules and principles followed by the Knights Templar, a medieval order of warrior monks formed in the 12th century. This code emphasized values such as bravery, loyalty, chastity, and discipline. Templars were dedicated to protecting pilgrims traveling to the Holy Land and fought in the Crusades. The code also included a commitment to serve the Church and uphold justice. Over time, the Templars became known for their wealth and influence, leading to both admiration and suspicion, culminating in their disbandment in the early 14th century.
