Discovered the Templars a treasure in Jerusalem?

They took it to Europe and became more powerful than the pope himself?

When the French King confiscated their assets-

- no tax was found. Where took That way and where is it today?

There is no doubt that The Templars had a great treasure.

The question is who took it.

There are many who believe that they found the federal sheets.

They might find a menorah or pagan documents-

-and alternative testaments.

I think it's quite possible-

that the temple riders hid has remained hidden.

This is the plan drawing by Rosslyn Chapel.

In its crypt is the Federal Reserve and the most sacred.

It's a Graal-wiser. If you attach a string in it-

- and lets it hang down, can it show the way to Graalen.

Many claim that Tutanchamon's grave-

- is the most famous treasure which has been found.

I think we have something more valuable on Oak Island.

For thousands of years, Jerusalem has been a city characterized by power and chaos.

Even today it is a melting pot of religions and beliefs.

When the man they call for the Messiah lived-

- was the heart of the city Jerusalem Temple.

There, Solomon's treasure was preserved and maybe even the Federal Reserve.

The temple had been robbed twice and rebuilt.

70 AD invaded the Romans under the direction of General Titus.

They burned the city to the ground and robbed all they came across.

Titus arch in Rome clearly shows how the army proudly carries out -

-healthy Jewish objects from the city -

- including Menoran, the sifted candelabra.

What makes this treasure so special?

The Temple priests feared that a brutal attack would take place-

- so they hid the treasure underground map space.

We know that thanks to Kopparrullen-

- found among The 19th century death row rolls

- for the priests described what they had hidden and where.

Rinse for 1000 years in time to 1119-

- then a group of French nobility arrived in Jerusalem.

We know them today like the Templars-

- and many think they came here to find the hidden treasure.

What did the temple gentlemen do? in Jerusalem?

Lord of the Templars was to protect the pilgrims-

- but in reality did they do anything else.

They spent the first eight years digging out Solomon's grave-

- and the stable that was built under the temple.

They laid a lot of time digging.

So you claim their mission was to protect the pilgrims-

- but that they really did anything else?

They seem to have had a baking tanks.

Did they search for the treasure?

They were even more interested of knowledge than money.

Fixed if they were looking for Förbundsarken-

-What many armies did-

- when its power was said to be possible defeat enemies-

Could it have been a motive.

Although there is no evidence that it was their goal.

One thing they may have looked for-

- is it semi-legendary Longinus spear.

A weapon that could be said defeat all enemies.

In the Christian version, it was said-

- be spoken as centurian had used-

- to tip Christ in the side during the crucifixion.

It was an object with enormously symbolic value-

so they dug, chased and searched for it.

They were also looking for Solomon's wealth-

- believed to be hidden under the temple.

There are stories of winners which led from the temple-

- out to this house which later became the temple treasure-

- but originally believed have been Solomon's treasure.

But the big question is about The Templars found it?

I met an Israeli archaeologist like for two years -

- has been looking for temple treasure under Jerusalem.

Dr Shimon Gibson think it's possible -

- the high priests buried their holiest objects -

- and that the Templars came to find them 1000 years later.

It is correct logical in mind that the Babylonians-

- stood and hammered the doors of the city.

They would come in to rob, rape and destroy

- so all valuables were hidden underground places in Jerusalem.

How to hide things.

If you had a lot of money or a tax-

- Did you hide them? in an underground location.

Is it likely that may be a tax-

- right below us where we sit and talk?

Everything is possible in Jerusalem.

Bargains are made all the time excavations in Jerusalem.

A colleague to me dug at Temple Mount a few years ago-

- and she found a high gold coin from year 613.

I could see in her eyes how excited she was.

She is a researcher who works with archeology-

and everything should be of interest.

But her eyes sparkled when she told me-

- about these beautiful gold coins from 613.

If the temple gentlemen found a treasure here in Jerusalem ...

- A big "about". - Yes.

Of course they became very rich, but what happened to the tax then?

I do not know. It's a big one rose from Jerusalem-

- for the temple ministers activities in Europe.

All I can say is that they became very rich.

They controlled the Temple Mount when they were in Jerusalem.

I guess if they thought reconstruction

- and bring back the Temple Mount to their former glory days-

-to renovate the temple of Salomo

- they also searched after hidden treasures there.

So it is possible for the Templars traveled to Jerusalem -

-to find the hidden treasure.

But did they succeed?

We know when they left Jerusalem and returned to Europe -

- the words were extremely wealthy and powerful.

No matter what they found in Jerusalem -

- they became, according to a former source, mightier than the pope.

An enviable, but also dangerous position.

They returned to Europe and became all the more powerful.

They increased in number and gained more power.

They were arrogant and rich.

Can the temple knights Have discovered a tax card?

Could it be that simple?

We know that such one existed, namely copper roll.

It listed all gold and silver-

- Hidden in Jerusalem to avoid robberies.

If they found the roll, explains the wealth of the word.

They were armed knights who were very good at

to take care of people's money

They also used to lend money, which eventually became their case.

The French King owed them big sums.

He was pank and took the chance to confiscate their wealth.

They were the largest institution in the medieval Europe-

- besides the church itself and they owned a lot of land.

They were widely used in society.

They were very powerful for 200 years-

Then they met suddenly and dramatic downfall.

The Templars grew in power and wealth.

Even their enemies did it, like the French king.

He desperately wanted to leave the nightmare on their treasures from Jerusalem.

In the end, King Filip IV made a preventive feature -

- by grabbing all temple gentlemen and confiscate their property.

The day was remembered as a shame day -

Friday, 13th, 1307.

Here's how we feel afterwards to the fate of the temple gentlemen.

Filip Le Bel or Filip IV ordered order -

- that all temple rulers would be attacked at the same time.

Filip was not stupid. He was neither a hero nor fool.

If the attack failed, should the Templars be avenged.

They were not to play with. Should you attack the Templars-

- then you had to kill them or be killed by yourself.

This scenario was in a sense

- a strange historical parallel to what happened-

- in the temple of Jerusalem when the Romans attacked.

They were noble, strong and brave men.

And they were determined that regardless of their own destiny-

- after the treacherous attack by Filip's late-skinned-

- would not they let him get the treasure.

Some of their most brave men-

- fought against them supernatural enemies-

- while the others fled with the money.

Nothing would fall in Philip's hands.

Finally, at dawn on Friday, 13th, 1307 -

- stormed hundreds of the king's troops headquarters in Paris -

- and other brackets around France.

The goal was to seize all temple- gentlemen and confiscate their taxes -

as they had hidden under the ground.

Imagine the scenario: It's just lightnight-

Friday, October 13, 1307.

Philip's late shells and all their men fight.

The respected temple gentlemen, so they brought a large number of men.

And the commander of the temple lords-

fell one by one.

The king's soldiers thought enough: "Here is the castle of the temple gentlemen."

"We have swearing over the walls and killed the opponents. "

"Now we will find precious treasures. "

"If there is anything our master Philip Le Bel will thank us for -

- and reward us for is that the big treasure. "

A great strength of the king's men swept into the headquarters of Paris -

- where they encountered a smaller, but hard-wearing resistance.

The battle lasted for several hours before the Templars were defeated -

- and the French troops reached finally the underground basement.

Here was the headquarters once. Now it's a subway station.

When the king's men stormed the fort the basement vault was empty.

They had been preserved and once moved the treasure.

The question is where did it go?

Just before the king's men stormed the headquarters of Paris-

-had Major Gérard de Viliers-

-precis managed to fly.

He brought 50 horses and 18 ships.

That's quite a lot for a man-

- so probably he took with him the treasure to a new secret place.

The French King must have been looking for something special.

Yes, there is no doubt that The Templars had a great tax-

- which consisted of different valuable items.

There is no doubt either that most of the tax disappeared.

The question is where it went and who took it?

The one who was responsible for the temple in Paris, Gérard de Viliers, -

- was also the temple master with highest rank that managed to fly.

You must not be a detective to guess who took it.

The question is only where it went.

ROCHELLES HAMN

The Templars had a big fleet in La Rochelle -

-the west coast of France.

It is possible that the horses and the trolleys flew to this port -

- and sailed away before The king's troops take him to them.

Where the fleet sails is one of the greatest mystery of the temple lords.

Some historians think they sailed to North America and Canada -

- while others think they traveled to eastern Scotland -

- where they went ashore near Edinburgh.

The historian and author Andrew Sinclair of the Eight Saint Claire -

- think that the tax was brought to Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland.

He claims that pictures of the sheets lying in the chapel's crypt -

- can be seen in a 14th century document called "Kirkwall Roll" -

- as he found in a masonry log on the Isle of Orkney.

What are we seeing here, Andrew?

This is the Rosslyn Chapel and in the crypt lies-

- The Federal Reserve and the most sacred burial.

It is very clear.

You see two priests which carries the Federal Reserve.

And we see two other priests worship the golden calf.

These are temple hero maps from the seventh crusade-

- and they are full of Jewish symbols from the Old Testament.

In the middle you see remarkably enough-

- Freemasonry symbols and gnostic symbols.

We see two winged keruber who guard the most holy ones.

Below them we see another Freemason symbol.

The black and white floor as were the Templars' flag.

It is a treasure map that says that There are holy treasures in Rosslyn.

It is full of temple symbols.

And it has two crusade maps on the pages, which is proof enough for me.

So what we see here is a proof on the Templars' treasures?

Yes it is true.

There is also evidence that The Templars were Freemasons.

So is the Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland the key to this treasure?

We know that the chapel was built in 1446 by Sir William Sinclair-

- whose family had strong ties to the temple army.

It is said to have been built to house relics from the Holy Land.

The chapel is famous for its secretive roasts.

It is also said that the plan drawing-

-like Solomon's temple in Jerusalem-

- which is a good reason for an exciting mystery.

Late the movie When the Vinci code came out -

- who gave the Rosslyn Chapel a central role in the mystery -

- have you had problems with tax- hunters who want to dig up the waves.

Ian Gardner's job is to deter all wannabe-Robert Langdons -

- and is the right one to answer our questions.

The temple lords are lost treasure buried in the Rosslyn Chapel?

There are sins and theories, but no evidence.

So our opinion at the moment is that there is no tax here.

What do you think is under the chapel?

It is hard to say. We have no definite answer.

There is evidence which gives us clues.

Sir Walter Scott wrote in 1805 about the knights-

The Sinclair Knights and that they were buried in the crypt.

"He wrote about 20 barons.

Walter Scott visited frequently this area-

- so he may have seen Knights have been buried here.

It may happen that the Sinclair knights is buried here. We do not know.

If there are knights down there, do they have descendants.

If it is their last resting place-

- Are their families not willing to start digging and investigating the matter.

If it's a burial place, should you let them rest in peace.

But there is a connection between Temple Lords and Rosslyn.

Some things point to it.

Some paintings can be erased to the temple army.

There are stories about that family Sinclair belonged to the words.

And we are nearby of the village Temple-

- which is located here in Midlothian.

It was the Templars' base in Scotland.

There are therefore clues, but no evidence-

-This can give us a definite answer.

Many believe the rocks in the chapel -

- is its true treasure and its greatest secret.

The local guide Anne McNeil gives me a tour.

We're leaving here, Jaime.

Here is Rosslyn's most famous part, pillar "Apprentice Pillar".

It's the famous Rosslyn- the legend that attracts all visitors.

A spiral-shaped column.

What is it for stone figures? Are there dragons?

At the bottom we see seven dragons representing...

Or honors the Saint Claires family Scandinavian roots-

and Orkneyinga saga.

It thus depicts the family.

The spiral is, according to certain

- a reference to the Freemasons then it's a spiral staircase-

- as you can often see in their documents and rankings.

They learn to become a good freemason by getting up the stairs.

It is one of all interpretations.

Some also think that there are something hidden inside the pillar itself?

Another famous story has its roots in the masonry order here.

According to that, the pillar is an exact copy of a pillar in Solomon's temple-

- and from there all the sins originate about the Templars and Holy Grail.

The chief architect of the Temple of Solomon is said to have been Hiram Abif.

He was murdered by some members of the masonry-

- then he would not reveal the secret of the stone quake.

The best part usually they are late whispering.

They usually say that the pillar is not a copy-

- without it being the original player and that it is hollow.

They believe that the Holy Grail is hidden in the middle and that we are on duty.

Wait...

So there are stories about that treasure is buried under the pillar?

Yes, the legend of the Templars.

- And that the grail is in the pillar? - Some claim it.

Can you see if it's hollow? Do you know that?

We have ... The chapel has been scanned-

- with heating cameras and the pillars are made of stone.

- So no grail? - No.

Do you think the treasure can be buried under the Rosslyn Chapel?

Rosslyn Chapel is undeniable a mysterious and interesting place.

When studying its interior and roasts-

- it seems to be a perfect example on the mystery of temple worshipers

- because they had a strong one related to the chapel.

They had loyal followers here in the form of the Sinclair family.

I think it is most likely to they considered the place to be safe enough

- to leave at least a part of the tax on.

What is buried under Rosslyn? is a hot topic.

It's no mystery anymore, because you know what's down there.

The fact that we have not heard anything suggests two things.

Either it is so heretic and controversial that it must be hidden-

- or it's an artifact which should not be in Scotland.

Like Minoran. It would be reimbursed immediately.

If it were something dramatic as the Federal

- could it trigger next world war.

So for good reasons you keep quiet.

- So what's beneath us? - That is a good question.

Above our heads we have something which is called a keystone.

It hangs right above us up there.

We usually call it cold for the Graal visor.

Can it show where the grail is hidden if you hang a string in it?

- Either way, we stand on it. - Is the grail below us?

- We really do not know. - Okay.

- Do we know what is buried? - No.

We have scanned the site several times-

- and received indications that There is metal down there.

Maybe it's the knights by Saint Claire?

But we are not 100 percent safe.

So there may be temple worshipers buried under us?

Yes maybe.

Can we not just do an excavation under the chapel?

Unfortunately not, but there are secrets here.

We know that Mary of Guise, who was married to King James V-

- and mother of Maria, the queen's queen-

- wrote a secretive letter to William St Claire 1546.

She thanked Rosslyns hemligheter-

- and promised not tell them to someone.

We do not know what secrets which was meant.

We do not know the answer now, but I believe that in the next 500 years-

- Will people search the answers on the mysteries here.

It keeps the tension and the myth alive.

PICTURES FOUND ANDREW SINCLAIR

So what's hidden the secretive chapel?

In the 1990s, armed with his 14th-century treasure map -

- Andrew Sinclair made a laser scanning under Rosslyn's floor.

Although the results were mixed -

- They showed that there is a deeper cry under the church than you thought.

We got two nights at us and scanned the entire floor-

- With equipment like people uses to find oil.

We knew there were crypt sub-

- but the pictures seemed to show that the cries were put together.

I knew one of the side cryptes-

so we dug on the page.

There were steps which led down to the crypts.

There were three chests down there and a medieval wooden bowl-

which I called for the Grail.

It looked like the Grail, but may have been a plate.

There was a sidewall as I did not get past.

At a later moment we used an endoscope.

We drilled a hole and brought in a camera in the cryptan-

-but the earth gave way-

and that was the end of the endoscope.

I did not get through and we Will not try again.

I'm pretty sure some of the Templars' tax-

- is down there and probably the Grail.

When Rosslyn was in in Then Vinci Code -

- the remote chapel was set on the tourist map.

Unfortunately, that means tens of thousands Visitors come every year -

- to find the secret archives or Mary Magdalene's grave.

What's the movie Dan Vinci code impacted on the Rosslyn Chapel?

It opened the chapel for the whole world.

In 2006, our number of visitors-

-from 30000 to 176000.

"It's a dramatic increase. - This was part of the movie, huh?

Yes, Tom Hanks stays here in the stairs

- and looking for the last clue which was a six-pointed star.

We had none, so Hollywood did one in wood and put it on the wall.

- Put this? - Yes.

Hollywood stack and removed it from the wall.

Where was this circle-

- which we call for "Hollywood circle".

Some visitors actually become disappointed when they come down here.

They expect to see the spiral staircase and the library.

They will come up again and ask where everything is.

We ask what they are looking for-

- and they point out that it is included in the book.

They seem to think we have a button who can enchant everything-

- but we have not. What we see is what we have.

Then they say they understand that We must keep the secret.

So I think they're happy anyway.

You should get a Grail to make people happy.

We actually sell wooden beakers in the store.

So a wooden cup in the store is that nearest we come to the grail?

I was talking to people in Jerusalem-

- and many believe the Templars took a treasure.

Do you think it's true?

You can listen to theories and opinions-

- but it's hard to prove or disprove them.

One of the things that are very difficult to prove

-If there was a connection.

There are legends and sayings which keeps the debate alive-

-and that is most important of all.

As long as you do not know what's down there-

- Continue the mystery, but if you find the crypt-

- You either see that they are empty or there are graves.

It is a more favorable industry not to open the crypt-

otherwise they have no mystery.

- So that's good for the business? - Yes.

NOVA SCOTIA, CANADA

There is another theory of where The Templars Hid Their Treasure -

- and it's on a distant island in Nova Scotia.

According to the word, temple- men's naval port in France -

- but instead of Traveling to Scotland -

- crossed the Atlantic and ended up on Oak Island in western Canada.

According to legend, they dug a deep hole of over 30 meters -

- which led to a tunnel system where they buried their precious treasure.

The treasure was untouched for hundreds of years -

- until some locals discovered by chance a vertical shaft 1795.

The kids ran and picked up spades.

They dug three meters and encountered a lid of extocks.

It dug up soft filling, but the walls were tough.

It was obvious that there was one dug hole, not a natural hole.

They dug another three meters and encountered more extras.

Then they realized that the task be them superstitious.

In the next 200 years have countless expeditions -

- tried to find the treasure Oak Islands pengawruva.

We have been there several times.

Every visit is incredibly exciting-

- because there is no doubt that there is something hidden down there.

The problem is that those who built it, probably the Templars, -

- had also dug two water tunnels which led to the Atlantic.

When the diggers took over the boys-

-In the early 19th century-

-supported them in stock of cork clay.

The kind of clay you use to waterproof a boat.

Templars were reputable builders.

Some suspect that they designed a security system.

It included multiple layers of exticks -

- and inlet to the sea, so if you dug too deep -

- the tunnel swam over and killed everyone in it.

That, in turn, continued excavations impossible.

The right to make excavations on Oak Iceland is owned by Dan Blankenship -

- and like many before him, many of whom lost their lives -

- Is he convinced that one Buried tax is waiting and waiting.

- Why did you come here? - That is a good question.

I have never thought about it.

I guess curiosity was a contributing factor-

- and the dream of getting rich was a contributing factor.

Even exploration had a finger in the game.

What do you think is in the mine?

The value of what they left or hid on the island-

- causes the head to spin when you think about it.

My personal opinion is-

that it would have Tutanchamon's grave-

- to appear insignificant in comparison.

Many claim that Tutanchamons grave is the most famous treasure-

- which has been found, but I think that Oak Island hides something more valuable.

Pastor Lionel Fanthorpe have for over 20 years -

- examined the mystery of Oak Island and believe that Blankenship -

- and other excavators may be something on the track.

What speeded up the mystery of the Oak Island-

- was the discovery of an engraved stone in the shaft.

The strange letters finally disqualified

- and it said: "12 meters below millions of pounds are buried. "

When it became known that a great treasure was there-

-the engraved stone-

- tried countless expeditions overcome the floods.

According to legend, seven men must die and the last eck must fall-

When the island gives up its treasure.

Six men have died and the oaks has long gone

PRIVATE Ö. ACCIDENT PROHIBITED

But the mystery of Oak Island has got a new turn.

Andrew Gough was contacted by a professional explorer -

- which claims to have found a grave of great importance there.

Over the last four years has he reported to me-

- if they have found one tunnel system under the Oak Island-

- which are together with a nearby island.

And in this system one has found King David's body.

His contact claimed that he had appeared near the grave -

- and found artifacts from the temple gentlemen at the bottom.

He also claimed that There was a big tax there.

A clue to its origin is one of King David's wives.

There is a very famous wife, namely, Batseba-

- and interestingly was she mother to King Solomon?

Here we have an island full of relics, including King David's body-

- other artifacts and the mother of Solomon-

- whose tax may be hidden there It's a fascinating opportunity.

Can the Templars have buried parts or the whole treasure from Jerusalem -

- under Oak Island, along with King David and Solomon's mother?

Like many other claims on major discoveries -

- it's just a scary opportunity until you have found true evidence.

But what discovery it would be.

There is one last puzzle piece in this exciting treasure hunt.

It is in an artificial cave under Royston in Hertfordshire.

There are chalk crayons like represents Jesus' crucifixion.

They are believed to be created by temple knights on my way home from the Holy Land.

The cave has an octagonal floor alike The Holy Sepulcher's Church in Jerusalem.

Then they took, as some believe bring the treasure -

- not to Nova Scotia or Scotland, but to England?

The local historian Sylvia Beamon gives me a tour.

How old do we think the cave is?

It may originate from the Stone Age, but most roasts-

- was made in the 1100s and the 13th century.

It is a theory that has been linked together with the temple gentlemen.

The reason is Baldoc, which is 15 km away.

It is a market town like was created by the temple army.

From 1199 to 1254 came temple- The gentlemen from Baldoc to Royston-

-to conduct marketing.

And the markets were important crossroads all over England.

The first sign on the cave Link to the Templars can be seen here.

- You see a cross with a figure on. - This?

It's a mantra cross which used by the temple gentlemen.

To the right you will see a symbol.

That is probably a world map-

- which shows the highest point of the heavens and the center of the earth.

Up here you see a group, as many of us think is an army-

- and under the army you see an upside-down shield.

An upside down shield indicates that the people it represents are dead.

Here I think the Templars-

- had to be regularly say 40 sorcerers-

- in memory of their dead brothers which was or had been in Jerusalem.

The small limestone cave is said dating from the 13th century -

- and is covered in crusher images and temple knight -

- including the great champion Jacques de Molay burned on fire in Paris.

There is also a picture of Jesus, Maria Magdalena and a little child.

Is it one of those heresies like The Templars were accused of?

Throne on the bloodline?

Do you think the temple gentlemen hid a treasure here?

The Templars shipped jewels and money-

- across the country because they served as bankers.

They gave us the word "check" and Royston lay a lot ...

It lay along the itineraries-

- then the jewels and the money may have come from-

- Dover, Stood, London, Royston heading to Stanford or York.

This was a good hideaway-

- where you could save money and jewels overnight.

If the roasting was done temple gentlemen like Sylvia believe -

- can the octagonal cave have been used as a meeting place -

- ritual site or maybe as storage for important taxes.

Important things like holy relics from Jerusalem.

Whatever the truth, is Royston hidden cave under the streets-

- a fascinated part of England's history.

Do you still think so? Are there any treasures to find, Lionel?

I think Rosslyn is a likely hideaway-

- and that Sinclair know what's in there.

Oak Island is the strongest the candidate of all.

I think it looks as the work-

-of the organized temple gentlemen.

When they dug the water tunnels they cried out and said,

"Hope some of Philip's men come here and look. "

I do not think there are many parts of the Templars' tax-

-which is missing

I think somebody knows where everything is.

Some have certainly melted down-

- but many of them are still preserved and joins a new cup roll.

Someone looks for these relics. Somewhere, today.

Until the tax is found in Rosslyn, Oak Island or Royston-

- comes the mystery around the treasure to pamper those who are looking for it.

It is possible to tax never found at all.

In that case it is buried here and waiting to be discovered.

We'll see eachother next time.
