Sacred Sites of the Knights Templar

The Knights Templar protected pilgrims visiting the Holy City of Jerusalem. However, the Templars soon accumulated wealth and power. They also discovered the astronomical secrets of ancient sacred sites and passed these secrets along only to their spiritual descendants, the Freemasons. Young reveals the astronomic themes embedded in Masonic ritual, and their origins in the ancient religions of Europe. The megalithic monuments of Europe reveal these secrets. Medieval structures erected at these same sacred sites attempted to incorporate the spiritual significance of these sites into Christianity. The Templar structures at these sites betray a hidden understanding of this ancient astronomy -- and that understanding is kept alive by the Freemasons. Illustrations.
