About Order of Saint Lazarus
The Order of Saint Lazarus of Jerusalem, also known as the Leper Brothers of Jerusalem or simply as Lazarists, was a Catholic military order founded by Crusaders in the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem and led by a Grand Master. While the monastic order is believed to have been formally established in the 1130s as a hospitaller body, documentary evidence confirms that its central edifice, a leper hospital dedicated to Saint Lazarus, was a functioning concern as early as 1073.
