Even if you haven’t read Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code, the book titled The Da Vinci Code in Turkish, which still manages to maintain its place in the world’s best-selling books list, you must have at least watched the 2006 film adaptation. We will not talk about this detailed story, but it is necessary to take a closer look at the Priory of Sion, which made its name with this artifact.
The name of the Priory of Sion was actually mentioned in some books long ago. However, not many people knew that such a secret organization existed until the last book, as none of them were as popular as the Da Vinci Code. Let’s take a closer look at questions such as what is the millennial Sion Sect, which is said to include European royalty and many scientists, how it came to be, what is its purpose, and more importantly, is it real?
What is the Priory of Sion?
The Priory of Sion is a secret religious organization believed to have been founded in 1099 and thought to intervene directly in political events all over the world. It is claimed that the name of the organization derives from Mount Zion in Jerusalem. Among the members of this organization, many European dynasty members and world-renowned scientists are among those claimed.
How did the Priory of Sion come about, what did it do?
Allegedly, Hz. Jesus was married to a woman named Mary Magdalene and they had children. Hz. Knowing that he was going to die, Jesus asked Mary to lead the church after him. Of course, St. After Jesus was crucified, the pressure on Mary and her children increased, so they had to flee. Mary Magdalene, who fled to France with her children, took refuge in a Jewish community here.
When we come to about the 5th century, Hz. A descendant of Jesus and Mary married a descendant of ancient Israel and a member of the royal family of France. That is, Hz. The lineage of Jesus, the French royal family, and the Jews converged. Members of this lineage started to control all events in Europe by establishing a secret organization.
The organization founded by members of this secret lineage, later called the Priory of Sion, played a major role in the initiation of the Crusades and the conquest of Jerusalem. Hz. He found many relics of Jesus. He led the establishment of the Knights Templar. After 1307, he went underground and continued his work in secret.
What is the purpose of the Priory of Sion?
- Unifying the whole of Europe to establish the Holy European Empire.
- To abolish the Catholic Church and establish a new state religion based on the Holy Grail and the Jewish Testament.
- Establishing the Greater Kingdom of Israel.
Since it is believed that the Sion Sect organization is working for these purposes, its name has been mentioned together with Rosicrucians, Vatican, Dead Sea Scrolls, Freemen, Golden Dawn Sect and many other formations.
According to the belief of many, the Priory of Sion is an organization that undersigns all kinds of evil done in the world. However, in their own opinion, the sole purpose of this sect is to establish peace for humanity. In other words, even if there is a war or massacre, they think that as a result of this, all humanity will win and absolute peace will be achieved.

How true is the information about the Priory of Sion?
, born in 1920, a Frenchman named Pierre Plantard, who describes himself as ‘traditionalist, royalist and anti-Semitic’; During the Second World War, when France was occupied by the Nazis, she reached out to the authorities and made numerous reports that this occupation was carried out by the Jews.
Pierre Plantard was sentenced to prison in 1953 for fraud. When he came out, he founded a structure called the Priory of Sion, named after a mountain in the region. When no one but a few crackers joined the organization, Plantard began writing a series of scrolls about how ancient and sacred their sect actually was. He secretly placed these documents in the great libraries of France and tried to attract people’s attention.
Pierre Plantard’s house was raided in 1993 and many documents and letters were found regarding all this fraud. Scientists who examined the documents in question said that these documents, which were already prepared in a very bad way, would be 40 years old at most. Moreover, Plantard confessed to all that he had done in court. So no, the Priory of Sion is not a real organization.
