On Friday, October 13th, 1307, one of the most powerful organizations in history was suddenly destroyed.
The Knights Templar—a mysterious brotherhood of warrior monks who controlled vast wealth, land, and what many believe was the first international banking system—were arrested across France in a single coordinated attack ordered by King Philip IV.
They were accused of shocking crimes:heresy, secret rituals, and worshiping a mysterious idol known as Baphomet.
Many confessed under torture.
Some were burned at the stake.
But when authorities raided the Templar headquarters, something shocking happened…
Their treasure was gone.
To this day, historians and researchers debate what really happened to the Knights Templar. Did their wealth and secret knowledge disappear… or did the surviving members escape and secretly influence organizations like the Freemasons and other hidden societies?
In this solo episode of Truth Be Told, Tony Sweet explores the dramatic rise of the Knights Templar, the conspiracy behind their sudden destruction, and the mysterious legends that still surround them today.
Was the order destroyed because they were guilty…or because they were too powerful to control?
And could their secrets still exist today?
