Commanderie de Coulommiers, Templar Commandery in Coulommiers, France.

The Commandery comprises several medieval buildings including a chapter house, chapel, and dovecote within a walled courtyard north of the Loire River.

Founded before 1173, the Commandery received substantial land donations from Count Thibaud III of Champagne in 1198, strengthening Templar presence in the region.

The 4,000-square-meter medieval garden, established in 2019, displays traditional medicinal plants and represents the historical connection to medieval cultivation practices.

Located at 1 Rue des Templiers in Coulommiers, the Commandery offers visitors access to preserved medieval architecture and underground passages from the 12th century.

The Commander's Tower, which served as the residence for the Templar leader, stands as evidence of the complex financial operations conducted by the order.
