EPL- INFORMATION FOR YOUR BUILDING SOUL
Knights Templar and occultism
[
edit
]
The original
Knights Templar
, founded around 1119, had been a crusading military order, that, at some time, had established financial networks across the whole of Christendom. In 1307, King
Philip IV of France
mounted a "slanderous campaign"
[1]
to strip the Order of its economic and political influence. The Templars were accused of Satanic practices, perversions and blasphemy and ruthlessly suppressed; Its leaders were burned on March 18, 1314. The circumstances of their suppression gave rise to
legends surrounding the Knights Templar
. In Germany, "where the growth of deviant Masonic rites was greatest,"
[2]
the Templar heritage was adopted for irregular Freemasonry. (
Freemasonry
had been officially founded in England in 1717.)
The idea of chivalric Freemasonry first occurred ca. 1737 in France.
[2]
In 1775 Baron Gotthelf von Hund (1722–76) founded the
Order of Strict Observance
, claiming the possession of secret Templar documents which allegedly prove that his order represented the legal Templar succession.
