With the name after "Jacques de Molay", this pilgrim hostel located in front of Sahagun goes far back in time, to the second half of the 13th and the beginning of the 14th century. The namesake was not only the Knights Templar, as one can easily see from the portrait on the outside wall, but also the Grand Master of the community, usually referred to briefly as the "Order of the Templars", whose full name is "Poor Knighthood of Christ and the Solomonic Temple in Jerusalem". He achieved sad notoriety through the fact that in 1312 this order was dissolved by the French king and the pope and he and many other members met their violent end at the stake as alleged heretics. The main reason for the dissolution, however, was not the alleged human and religious misconduct/heresy of the members, but rather the legendary wealth of this order. King Philip IV of France primarily wanted to secure the treasures in order to supplement his coffers.
