The Templar Knights did exist, yes. But they were disbanded by the Roman Catholic church for being too powerful.
There would more than likely be various groups claiming to be the remnants of the Templars, and some claim the real Templar remnants live in a secret society (like the Illuminati), I hope that's true :)

What were the charges against Templars?
They were Charged with Pagan Practices... However, after two centuries of defending the Christian faith, the Order met its demise when Philip IV - known as Philip le Belle (the Fair) - sought to destroy the Templars. Historians are generally in agreement that Philip was motivated by greed rather than his belief that the Templars were corrupt. Regardless of his motivations, Philip had the Templars arrested on October 13, 1307. The Templars were tortured and confessions were given. These confessions included: Trampling and spitting on the cross Homosexuality and Sodomy Worshipping an idol Philip was successful in ridding the Templars of their power and wealth and urged all fellow Christian leaders to do the same thing. In 1312 the Templars were officially dissolved by Pope Clement V at the Council of Vienne. Although the Templars were not found guilty of the crimes they were charged with, it was felt that the reputation of the Order had fallen to so low a state as to warrant dissolving the Order.
Are templar's real?
Catholic AnswerThe Knights Templars were very real, and mostly all executed in the fourteen century, and disbanded by the Church. Modern "templars" are a branch of Freemasons which ape some of the clothing and rituals of the Templars but have no real connection with them. The Templars themselves (those still alive in the fourteenth century) were absorbed into other orders in the Church. The freemasons not only have no connection with them but have been condemned by nearly every Pope for the past two hundred years.
