Where would Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code be without the Templars? Indiana Jones would have still been looking without their help too! The Knights Templar formed in the dust of the Holyland, always held a degree of mystery, even in their own day. Originally a corps of Christian warrior monks, they built a multinational corporation over the course of two centuries only to have it destroyed by the Pope and European monarchs. And yet, in Ireland, far flung from the Holyland, they made the manors, to help finance the crusades and it seems fuel jealousy.

Greetings from Ireland! Welcome to my channel, that is dedicated to the history and culture of Ireland.This is not set out to be a history lesson, but a ramble through some stories you might find interesting about Ireland from an Irishman! Ireland has so many connections throughout the world from the emigration from this country over so many centuries, but those with Irish blood in their families always have a yearning to know more about thier "old country", this is my attempt to bring some of the history and culture they left behind. So if you fancy some tales about horsemen and highwaymen, banshee's and fairies, soldiers and rebels, legends and folklore, saints and scholars, please like and subscribe, I post once per month. Thank you for watching. Ronan.
