- Title
A Extinção da Ordem do Templo em Portugal.
- Authors
Gomes, Saul António
- Abstract
This paper intends to examine the extinction of the order of the Knights Templars in Portugal and its succession by the Order of Christ. It edits documents not integrally published until now, specially the inquiry made by João Pais de Soure in 1314. This forensic inquiry controlled by officials serving the Crown is as a consequence a documental instrument free of vice or suspicion in the behalf of the Templars. Thus it enables us to verify, in spite of episodes of tension between the royal power and the Order, the structural prevalence in the historical memory of the portuguese templars of fellow-feelings and loyalty of the Portuguese knights of the Order towards the King.
