The Templars in Scotland – What Happened After 1312?

In 1312, the Knights Templar were officially dissolved by the Pope. Across Europe, their lands were seized and their leaders arrested. But Scotland’s story took a different path. This film follows what happened to the Templar lands in Scotland after the Order fell. Temple in Midlothian, where their Scottish headquarters once stood. Torphichen in West Lothian, where the lands passed to the Hospitallers. Kilwinning in Ayrshire, where the later connections became harder to ignore. It looks at the transfer of lands, the rise of the Order of Christ in Portugal, the shadow of Wallace and Bruce, and the symbolism that followed the Templars long after their suppression. And it asks the question that still keeps the story alive: did the Templars really disappear, or did the idea simply change its name? 0:00 Where Rosslyn's Story Really Begins 0:18 The Mother Lodge and the Templar Myth 0:41 1312: The Order Dissolved 1:01 Balantrodoch, Town of the Warriors 1:41 Friday the 13th, 1307 1:56 The Land Passes to Torphichen 2:51 The Sanctuary Stone 3:13 Wallace, Falkirk and the Wrong Side 3:56 What Happened to the Men? 4:45 Portugal's Different Ending 5:32 The Cult of John the Baptist 6:33 The Two Saints John at Kilwinning 6:40 Did the Templars Become Masons? 7:39 The Idea That Survived 👉 Shop OrbitalFlyers: https://shop.orbitalflyers.co.uk/en-gbp 📍 Locations: Temple, Midlothian | Torphichen, West Lothian | Kilwinning, Ayrshire #Templars #KnightsTemplar #Scotland #ScottishHistory #Torphichen #Kilwinning #DroneFootage #HiddenScotland #OrbitalFlyers #VisitScotland
