In this documentary we explore the mysterious origins of the historical plague knights. These had emerged in the early years of the Crusades as a monastic order which sought to treat those afflicted by Leprosy. Over the years they would see their institution grow. Yet even still they did not militarize alongside their fellow orders such as the Knights Hospitaller and the Knights Templar. It was only in 1187, on the cusp of the Third Crusade that these men took up arms. From this point on we cover their equipment, organization, and service history.
