Description:
Originally based
in Acre, the Teutonic Knights was a crusading
order of knights created in in the 12 century
for the purpose of give medical aid to pilgrims
to the holy places. Although they did not originally
have a military mission, the need for more combatants
against the Muslims forced them to re-organize
along military lines in 1198 and adopt the title
Ritter, or Knight. They wore a white uniform with
a black cross.
