Templar Strongholds in
the Holy Land
by (name not known)
"The
map displays the Templar
castles
and major cities in the Holy Land. Below the map there is a table of
data on Templar installations, for which you can donate material if
you have any. Use the Guest Book to mail me your tasty tidbits of info.
During all of Templar history, the Order never held more than 10 castles
or strongholds at any one time. This is different from the Hospitallers,
who had seven or eight castles already in the 1160's, and had a total
of 56 strongholds in Latin Syria.
Please note that the list of strongholds has more castles than actually
shown in the map. The map is in the works, and I must ask you to return
later for the updated map." (more)
