Description
The order of the teutonic knights. From Akkon in the Outremer to the state of the german knights order in the Baltic. In 1190 citizens of the german cities Bremen and Luebeck founded a field-hospital for the pilgrims and crusaders near Akkon in Palestine. They cared for the sick and wounded. The monks called themselves "German Brothers of the church St. Mary of Jerusalem". In 1198 they became the Deutschritterorden or Deutschorden, the order of the teutonic knights. In the Holy Land the germans became the third most mighty knights order, but the templars and the order of St. John had still claimed most of the land for themselves. So the knights and german settlers conquered the land east of the river Oder along the baltic coast to the lake Peipus. In 1410 the knights were beaten at the battle of Tannenberg by polish knights and lost most of their territory.
