The walled fortress was built in 1294 by the Templar Knights on what was an old Arab fortress. It was built on a small peninsula on the seafront simply earthed by a small isthmus of sand, next to the walls that made this rock an impregnable fortress.
Peníscola (Baix Maestrat. Castelló de La Plana)
We are warriors of love
And we have made deals with God
Down through the generations
Too many to be told and at great loss
Our precious treasure
Can never be bartered or be sold
From Acre to Malta
We protected the Cross
Now we still live amongst you
Wolves in sheep’s clothing
Protecting your resurrection
No matter what the cost
Come the day when you need us
When there is no chance in hell
Call us in your desperation
Help to ease the sweat on your brow
We will stand with you
To take that last journey
Racing towards heaven
And the end of all of your days
Well, it had to happen. Mix my love of the Grail with my other obsessions, the Templar's being one of them, and the beautiful setting of Glynde Place, seen from Glynde Churchyard, in Sussex, UK, and the result is this work.

Quella eterna fonte sta nascosta, ma so ben dove sgorga anche se è notte.
La sua origine non so, poiché non l’ha, ma so che ogni origine da lei viene, anche se è notte.
So che non può esserci cosa tanto bella e che in cielo e terra bevono di quella, anche se è notte. (San Giovanni della Croce)
Se trata de un castillo de enormes dimensiones y de origen árabe, que tras la toma de Toledo se convirtió en la encomienda más importante de la Orden de los caballeros Templarios al sur del Tajo.
The village of Temple was once the headquarters of the Knights Templar in Scotland from whom it takes its name, previously being known as Balantrodoch. The land was granted to the Templars by king David I in 1153 and held by them until the order was supressed in 1312.
The ruins of the old parish church date from the early 14th century.

Rosslyn Chapel is a 15th-century chapel located in the village of Roslin, Midlothian, Scotland. The chapel was founded by William Sinclair, 1st Earl of Caithness.
This shot is a view of the restorations in 2008.
Since the late 1980s, the chapel has been the subject of speculative theories concerning a connection with the Knights Templar and the Holy Grail, and Freemasonry.
It was prominently featured in this role in Dan Brown's bestselling novel The Da Vinci Code (2003) and its 2006 film adaptation. Medieval historians say these accounts have no basis in fact.

It was a foggy morning and the drive was still a ways out from my encampment. I ventured deep into the woods to find this water source. Everything else had been dried up by the cattle.

The Templars Church - Late afternoon on the Hook Peninsula at Templetown. The Templar's church received its name from the Knights Templar and dates from 1310.
Rosslyn Chapel, also known as the Collegiate Chapel of Saint Matthew, is a 15th-century Episcopal chapel located in the village of Roslin in Midlothian, Scotland. The chapel was founded by William Sinclair, 1st Earl of Caithness with a ground-breaking ceremony in 1456. After the Scottish Reformation in 1560, it was largely abandoned but, following a visit by Queen Victoria, it was rededicated in 1862. It was the target of a bombing in 1914 during the suffragette bombing and arson campaign. The interior contains some fine carvings which many historians have sought to interpret.

El castillo de Castillejo de Robledo y sus tierras fueron propiedad de la Orden del Temple hasta que fue suprimida por el Papa Clemente V en 1.311, momento en que pasó a la Orden Hospitalaria de San Juan de Jerusalén y luego a los vecinos del pueblo con la Desamortización. En la localidad existía una antigua fortificación musulmana sobre la que se levantó en el siglo XII el actual castillo. Los restos de la muralla musulmana se advierten en la parte inferior de la cerca y se caracterizan por un mayor grosor que los muros levantados por la Orden del Temple.
The castle of Castillejo de Robledo and its lands were property of the Order of the Temple until it was suppressed by Pope Clement V in 1311, when it passed to the Hospitaller Order of St. John of Jerusalem and then to the villagers with the confiscation of their lands. In the town there was a Muslim fortification on which the current castle was built in the 12th century . The remains of the Muslim wall can be seen in the lower part and are characterised by their greater thickness than the walls built by the Order of the Temple
The Order of the Temple is a French religious and military order resulting from the Christian chivalry of the Middle Ages, their members are called the Templars

This is from inside the British Museum the walkway between the buildings. It reminds me of the walkway in Indiana Jones and the last crusade. It also looks nice in black and white with silver toning.
