Temple Church

Temple Church in London, built by the Knights Templar in the late 12th century, is renowned for its distinctive circular nave, modeled after the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. One particularly fascinating feature is the collection of life-sized stone effigies of knights that lie on the floor. These effigies are often said to be depictions of actual Templar knights, though their exact identities remain a mystery. Additionally, the church played a significant role in English legal history as it is located within the Inner and Middle Temples, two of the four Inns of Court which have the exclusive right to call candidates to the English Bar.
