Since Hugo de Payns in Jerusalem founded the order of the Templars the year 1120, military orders - original creation of medieval Christendom - became a unique institutions which have aroused the interest of the society over the centuries. They were the only religious orders of the Church that allowed that his professed monks empuñaran weapons and stained them with the blood of the enemies of the Christian faith. The monks became warriors, Knights of Christ to make the Christian rule in the Holy Land and later in the other two borders of the medieval West: the eastern lands of the Empire and the Iberian Peninsula. In this last area, the institutions of monjes-guerreros met as many demonstrations and military activity prolonged until the end of the medieval centuries.
