[R]eligious order that played a major role in eastern Europe in the late Middle Ages and that underwent various changes in organization and residence from its founding in 1189/90 to the present. Its major residences, marking its major states of development, were: (1) Acre, Palestine (modern Akko, Israel), its original home beginning with the Third Crusade (1189/90-c. 1291); (2) Marienburg, Prussia (modern Malbork, Pol.), the centre of its role as a military principality (1309-1525); (3) Mergentheim, Württemberg, Ger., to which it moved after its loss of Prussia (1525-1809); and (4) Vienna, where the order gathered the remains of its revenues and survives as a purely hospital order (from 1834)) |
