Book: "The Da Vinci Code", Dan Brown, 2004
In London, Robert Langdon and Sophie Neveu search among effigies for the tomb of a knight at Temple Church, Inner Temple Lane.
The church of Inner and Middle Temple, two of England’s four Inns of Court – ancient societies of lawyers, it was consecrated in 1185 and, yes, it really was the London headquarters of the Knights Templar, the order of soldier monks founded to protect pilgrims travelling to and from the Holy Land.
Like all Templar churches, it follows the circular design of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre at Jerusalem, supposedly raised over the site where Jesus was buried. (source: Wikipedia)
