A 2021 France TV History Documentary hosted by Stéphane Bern. Audio in French with English subtitles.

On March 11, 1314, Jacques de Molay, Grand Master of the Order of the Temple, perished on a pyre set up in Paris, before the eyes of King Philip IV, called Philip the Fair (French: Philippe le Bel), responsible for his fall. Stéphane Bern reviews the circumstances of this event, which marks the end of a two-century-old order and remains shrouded in mystery.
