"Processus contra Templarios," a book published by the Vatican Secret Archives on the subject of the Knights Templar will be presented on October 25 in the Vatican's Old Synod Hall. The book contains entire acts of the original hearing against the medieval military-religious order that was suppressed by Pope Clement V.
According to a communique made public yesterday, the new volume is “a previously unpublished and exclusive edition” that will have a print run "rigorously limited to 799 copies" and contains the "faithful reproduction of the original parchments conserved in the Vatican Secret Archives."
The project, "is part of the series of 'Exemplaria Praetiosa,' ... the most elaborate and important publication yet undertaken by the Pontifical Archives."
