"Polish archaeologists believe silk-draped skeletons found in a cathedral crypt are those of three grand masters who more than 600 years ago ruled the Teutonic Knights - an order that spread religion through force.
An archaeologist in the city of Kwidzyn - the Teutonic fortress of Marienwerder in the Middle Ages - said Friday that DNA tests indicate the remains are those of Werner von Orseln, the knights' leader from 1324-1330; Ludolf Koenig, who ruled from 1342-1345; and Heinrich von Plauen, who reigned from 1410-1413."
This is a fantastic find; an amazing part of lost history has been rediscovered. I have been doing a lot of reading and research on the Teutonic Knights and the northern Crusades in the last year, these knights were very interesting for their time.
