The Sovereign Military Order of the Temple of Jerusalem (ORDO SUPREMUS MILITARIS TEMPLI HIEROSOLYMITANI), is a Christian, spiritual, chivalric, independent and non-political organization governed by the order's regula (statutes) written by the Cistercian monk Saint Bernard of Clairvaux in Troyes in 1128.
The order is registered in Paris and has its official headquarters in Paris.
The international structure and leadership of the Knights Templar are led by the Grand Mastership, Grand Priories, General Chapter and General Convent.
The Grand Priory of Scandinavia belongs to the international Knights Templar Ordro Supremus Militaris Templi Hierosolymitani (O.S.M.T.H.) The original Knights Templar, Ordre Souverain et Militaire du Temple de Jérusalem, was founded in 1118 to protect pilgrims to the Holy Land.
Today's Order of the Knights Templar fights for Christian values with the aim of making the Knights better people, doing good for others and being good role models.
