Kent Club Exclusive Visit, 12 April 2024

On 12 April 2024, Kent Club members were treated to an exclusive journey into the history and heritage of the Temple Church in central London. Built by the Knights Templar in the 12th century, the church stands as one of London’s most iconic landmarks, steeped in centuries of history, architecture, and legend.

Exploring the Templar Legacy

The visit offered members the chance to uncover the enduring legacy of the Knights Templar, from their founding and legendary crusades to their profound influence on law and society. Attendees also explored the church’s connections to the Magna Carta and the life of Sir William Marshall, highlighting its pivotal role in shaping history.

Architecture and Common Law Links

Guests admired the church’s stunning architecture and learned about its resilience, including surviving the Blitz. The tour also highlighted fascinating connections between Temple Church and the development of common law traditions across the UK, the USA, and the Commonwealth.

An Engaging Presentation

The session featured a presentation by the Master of the Temple Church, Robin Griffith Jones, titled “From the Templars to The Da Vinci Code: 850 years of the Temple Church.” The 45-minute talk provided a comprehensive yet accessible exploration of the church’s history, architecture, and cultural significance, making it a memorable experience for all attendees.

This visit offered Kent Club members a rare and intimate perspective on one of London’s most historic sites, blending history, architecture, and storytelling into a truly unforgettable event.
