The Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon, commonly known as the Knights Templar, or simply as Templars. They were among the most wealthy and powerful of the Western Christian military orders for nearly two centuries during the Middle Ages. Officially endorsed by the Roman Catholic Church around 1129, the Order became a favoured charity throughout Christendom and grew rapidly in membership and power. Templar knights, in their distinctive white mantles with a red cross, were among the most skilled fighting units of the Crusades.
