Rosslyn Chapel: From Templars to The Da Vinci Code (film)
About this Resource
A 5-minute 49-second documentary film by OrbitalFlyers exploring Rosslyn Chapel near Edinburgh, Midlothian. Using aerial footage and narration, it examines the chapel founded by Sir William Sinclair in the 15th century, its medieval stone carvings and Apprentice Pillar, and the legends linking Rosslyn to the Knights Templar, Freemasonry and the Holy Grail. It also considers Rosslyn’s later association with The Da Vinci Code and distinguishes historical evidence from speculation. Published in September 2025; free to watch online.
