	Pierre Plantard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pierre Plantard from 1937 onwards began forming phantom associations with the aim of "purifying and renewing France" showing his anti-semitic and anti-masonic inclinations.
		Pierre Plantard at the time was working as a draughtsman for a company in the town of Annemasse, in the Haute-Savoie region of south-east France.
		Plantard in reality was the son of a butler and a cook, who had no recorded links to the Merovingians.

	Priory of Sion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The founders and signatories are inscribed as Pierre Plantard (known as "Chyren"), André Bonhomme (known as "Stanis Bellas"), Jean Delaval and Armand Defago.
		Plantard originally hoped that the Priory of Sion would become an influential cryptopolitical pseudo-masonic lodge (similar to the P2 cabal) dedicated to the restoration of chivalry and monarchy, which would promote Plantard's own megalomaniacal claim to being a legitimate pretender to the throne of France.
		Plantard had tried to argue that the Jean Galibert tomb at Les Pontils was a "prototype" for Poussin's painting, however the tomb was situated directly opposite a farmhouse (behind the foliage) and was not in the "middle of nowhere" in the French countryside, as is commonly assumed.

		Plantard claimed that he was working for the Resistance, and produced documents (which have not been independently verified) showing that he was imprisoned by the Gestapo from October 1943 to February 1944.
		However, Plantard certainly visited the area in the late 1950s or early 1960s, although he seems to have been more interested in the nearby village of Rennes-les-Bains, and it is documented that he bought a parcel of land on the hill near Château Blanchefort.
		Plantard was named as Grand Master of the Priory of Sion from 1981 to 1984, when, by his own account, he resigned as the result of internal politics.

	DaVinci Code Revealed: The Movie, P.1
		The reason why Pierre Plantard claimed to be a Merovingian Pretender is because in 1960 he read an article by Louis Saurel about the Kings of France, which gave the impression that Dagobert II was the "last Merovingian King" (it was in fact Childeric III).
		Pierre Plantard was now receiving big publicity and he invented a new allegation claiming that although the parchments were forgeries created by Philippe de Chérisey, they were nevertheless based on "originals".
		Pierre Plantard's main thrust lay in the field of genealogies, not in surrealism, and in his claim to be descended from Dagobert II [13].

		Plantard posed as an expert on the Knights Templar; when he was interviewed by the authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail, his claims to be a Grand Master of the Priory of Sion were made public.
		Plantard and his friend Andre Bonhomme had organized the small group known as Priory of Sion, in 1956, to endorse affordable housing; they published a pamphlet entitled Circuit to promote their ideas.
		This false name provided Plantard with a "bloodline" to prove he was descended from Jesus and Mary Magdalene; when he was forced to recant on the entire fabrication, this too was discounted.

	The Canopus Revelation
		Plantard and the Priory of Sion go hand in hand, so much so that no-one is paying any attention to how he first gained his notoriety - and I do not mean the alleged convictions of child abuse.
		No, Pierre is just an everyday "Joe Alchemist", with an interest in Gisors, whose opinion, it seems, de Sède felt he should air as an appendix to his main work.
		Nevertheless, Plantard was saying that Gisors had been created with alignments to this star - which from an astronomical point was impossible; but from an alchemical point meant that Canopus and Gisors had a "subterranean connection".

		In effect, the originator of the association and its key protagonist was most probably Pierre Plantard, the General Secretary of the association although in practice its President was Andre Bonhomme.The choice of the name, 'Sion', was based on a hill south of Annemasse, known as 'Mont Sion'.
		Plantard originally hoped that the Priory of Sion would become an influential cryptopolitical lodge (similar to the P2 cabal), but dedicated to the restoration of chivalry and monarchy, and to promote Plantard's own claim to be the rightful king in France.
		When Plantard tried to make a comeback and a revival of the Priory of Sion in 1989 following his retirement in 1984 he claimed that the above list was bogus and a part of the "Secret Files", which by then had been exposed as a fraud by French researchers and authors.

	The Priory of Sion
		The man at the centre of the Priory of Sion is one Pierre Plantard.
		To quote Dan Burstein: “It is often hard in the case of Plantard to find the line what is known and what is a good story.” At the same time, it is clear that the available evidence has often been interpreted in more complex ways than is really required.
		I haven’t seen Pierre Plantard in over twenty years and I don’t know what he is up to, but he always had a great imagination.

	Pierre Plantard Profile
		A Report dated 4 May 1954 on Pierre Plantard reveals that he had moved to Annemasse by 1951 and was "married and had a daughter aged about three".
		By 1964 Plantard created the novel claim about himself that he was directly descended from the Merovingian king Dagobert II – and the central purpose of being of this version of the Prieuré de Sion was this very claim (Plantard was really descended from a 16th century peasant who picked walnuts).
		Plantard was let-off with a severe warning and never again revived his Prieuré de Sion activities, living out the rest of his life in seclusion in various addresses at Perpignan, Paris and Barcelona.

		Not only is the name "de Sion" found close to where Plantard lived, hence the mountain in Haute-Savoie called, "Mont Sion" on the route to Annecy-Geneva, this name also goes back to a religious community at the time of the Crusades, whose demise came after several centuries on the outskirts of Orleans.
		Pierre Plantard also concocted a new and different List of Grand Masters of the Priory of Sion that was to prove his downfall - he claimed that Roger Patrice Pelat had been a Grand Master.
		Plantard was let-off with a warning - and he was never to revive his Priory of Sion activities again.

		But even if it is true that Plantard was at one time arrested and tried for some sort of sexual deviance regarding children (assuming that this is not just a smear), this does not affect Plantard’s (or the story’s) insistence that he was of Merovingian descent.

		It has probably more to do with the fact that Pierre Plantard was not up to the task when defending Vaincre than the idea that Vaincre was a right wing journal.
		In Vaincre, Pierre de France stated that he had formerly worked with youth and that was fighting for their cause.
		Pierre Plantard’s own words in Vaincre stated that he took part in establishing youth movements, that there was an arrangement with the Vatican.

		Furthermore, contrary to public opinion, the Merovingians are not extinct but have surviving descendants still alive, the last of which in 1967 was Pierre Plantard, who was therefore the only true contender to the role of King of France (of course, under the improbable case of a restoration of the French monarchy).
		Perhaps Plantard was not the last descendant of Jesus Christ and the true Priory of Sion was not his organization.
		Actually, Plantard was inspired for his list of Grand Masters of the Priory of Sion by some of the lists of alleged «Imperators», i.e., supreme heads, and «distinguished members» of the AMORC, the Ancient and Mystical Order Rosae Crucis, which circulated in France, were AMORC was quite successful.
