Dan Jones Explains How The Knights Templar Managed Their Global Empire
Bestselling historian Dan Jones joins us to discuss the true story of the Knights Templar. Discover the Templars' origins as a small 'roadside rescue service' protecting pilgrims in the dangerous Holy Land. We explore the paradox of the warrior-monks, their rise to become a tax-exempt, international financial powerhouse, and the political showdown with King Philip IV of France that led to their brutal and sudden downfall. Did they have a secret treasure? What about the Holy Grail? Dan separates the historical fact from the enduring, global myth.
