Summary

The Knights Templar Order remains one of the most sought after unsolved mysteries of all time.

Formally they are known as The Poor Fellow Soldiers of Christ and the Temple of Solomon, shortened to Knights Templar referring to their encampment granted to them by King Baldwin II for Sir Hugh de Payens the first Grand Master and founder of the Order along with eight other knights, whom King Baldwin gave the status of protectors of the pilgrimage road for Christians, and then allowed them to make their camp in the old stables under the Temple of Solomon.

Now called the Dome of the Rock.

The Church of the Holy Sepulcher was the palace for King Baldwin, and the Temple was considered only the domain of the King of Jerusalem and his closest allies. King Baldwin Granted Sir Hugh and his Knights the title of the Order on Christmas Day in 1118.
