The monograph is dedicated to the history of the oldest spiritual-chief Order of the Roman Catholic Church. Throughout its centuries -old history, the Order has repeatedly been forced to change its whereabouts, the name of the order and its knights changed. In the beginning, they were called hospitals or Johnnites, since 1291 - "Knights of Cyprus", from 1306 - "knights of Rhodes". Only when in 1530 the Order received the Island of the German Nation of the German Empire of the Holy Roman Empire of Charles V of Malta from the Emperor, he received the name of the Maltese. However, to this day, the Order continues to be called the "Order of the John", "Order of Hospitallers" or the Order of St. John of Jerusalem. Much attention in the study is given to the relationship of the Order and the Russian Empire. Documents from foreign publications and Russian archives unknown to Russian researchers are introduced into scientific circulation.
