MÃ moires de lâInstitut National de France, 1889, Vol. 33 (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the little-known role of the Knights Templar as bankers, drawing on previously overlooked sources to unveil their evolving financial expertise. The author demonstrates that the Templars, in the heart of the Middle Ages, were pioneers in the development of financial instruments and systems that would later shape modern banking. Acting as trusted custodians of wealth and facilitators of financial transactions for royalty, popes, and merchants alike, their commanderies were essentially medieval banks that offered a range of services including secure storage, loans, currency exchange, and even debt collection. This financial acumen was a key factor in the order's rise to power and influence. The author's insightful analysis enriches our understanding of both the Templars and the evolution of financial practices during a pivotal era in Western history.
