Knights Templar History - Knights Templars are charged with Heresy
King Philip IV of France (1268-1314) who was already heavily in debt to the
Knights Templar requested a further loan. The Knights Templar refused his
request. King Philip IV subsequently ordered the arrest of all Knight
Templars in France. The order to arrest the Templars was sent out several
weeks before the date possibly giving the Templars time to hide their wealth
. On 11 October, two days before the arrest of many Templar Knights, it is
recorded in French Masonic history that Templar ships left La Rochelle,
heading to Scotland. On Friday the 13th, in October 1307, Jacques de Molay,
the Grand Master of the Knights Templar, and 60 of his senior knights were
arrested in Paris. They were charged with heresy and accused of homosexual
acts. Admissions of guilt were extracted due to the use of torture. Pope
Clement V initiated enquiries into the order and thousands of Knights
Templar were arrested across Europe. The Medieval order of the Knights
Templar become extinct in 1312 when the order is dissolved by the Council of
Vienne. Anyone found sheltering a Templar was under threat of
excommunication. Much of the Templar property outside of France was
transferred by the Pope to the Knights Hospitallers, and many surviving
Templars were also accepted into the Hospitallers.
Knights Templar History - The Death of the last Medieval Master
The Knights Templar leader Jacques de Molay and Geoffroi de Charney were
burnt at the stake on March 18th 1314 for rescinding their former admission
of heresy under torture. Jacques de Molay cursed the Pope and King Philip
and prophesied that they would soon die. Pope Clement V was dead within 40
days and King Philip died that year. Jacques de Molay was the last Master of
the Knights Templar. |
