THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR
OF ENGLAND & WALES

WHAT WE DO
Being a Knights Templar today doesn’t mean we all run around in cloaks and tabards and go off to fight in the crusades! A modern day Templar is more about the three C’s: Christianity, Chivalry and Charity.
AIMS OF THE ORDER
The tenets of the Order are Christianity, Charity and Chivalry.
​
The Grand Priory of England and Wales is Autonomous. The Order is apolitical, ecumenical and non- Masonic, devoted to the promotion of the Chivalric ideals and expects its members:
-
To acknowledge God in their lifestyle and behaviour
-
To love and respect their neighbour
-
To increase understanding between religions
-
To maintain a Christian presence in the Holy Land
-
To support the poor, sick, those in need, and to relieve human suffering
-
To stand against oppression and unjust accusations
-
To protect human rights
-
To encourage the noble ideals of Chivalry
-
To maintain the monuments, archives and history of the Knights Templar and foster education and research thereof.
