Found in Church Knights Temple Church Bodmin Cornwall
Recently I visited Cornwall, the land of my birth. I went to Bodmin moor, where I found the Knights Templar Church at Temple, on the moor. This Church is dedicated to St Catherine, it is said that the Knights Templar trained Cornish Knights here to fight to free Jerusalem on the first Crusade and a refuge for pilgrims and travellers, en route to the Holy Land, in the 12th century.
When I visited Temple, we found that it was a very peaceful place, although some strange things happened to our car and camera during our visit. It is said that the Knights Templar were also the protectors of the ancient Holy power which existed in that area, and that this Church was built here as a beacon of Christ’s Power over all powers on earth.
The land of Cornwall is known in the Cornish language as the land of Kernow. Although now it is part of England, it is still very distinct from the rest of the mainland.
The Temple Church is dedicated to St. Catherine of Alexandria and was founded by the Knights Templar in the Twelfth century and is located on the remote moorland of Bodmin Moor Cornwall.
This church of St. Catherine,is sited on their ancient abbey settlement, was finally suppressed in 1312 and taken over by the Knights Hospitallers.
