Knights Hospitaller
The Order of Knights of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem (; ), also known as the Order of Saint John, Order of Hospitallers, Knights Hospitaller, Knights Hospitalier or Hospitallers, was a medieval and early modern Catholic military order. It was headquartered in the Kingdom of Jerusalem, on the island of Rhodes, in Malta and St Petersburg.
Square du Temple
The Knights Templar actually began in the 12th century, constructing a fort first (Vieux Temple or Old Temple) in Le Marais. In the 13th century, a new fortress was built as their European headquarters. The enclosure, called "enclos du Temple", originally featured a number of buildings important to the running of the Order, and included a church and a massive turreted keep known as "Grosse Tour" (great tower), and a smaller tower called "Tour de César" (Caesar's Tower).
