en			Scrooge and the nephews go back to McDuck Castle after the Knights Templar's secret... and Scrooge finds something better - closure. (history)
fi			Roope, Aku ja veljenpojat saapuvat Ankkapurhan linnaan ja etsivät Temppeliherrojen suurta aarretta (history)
fr			Picsou emmène Donald et ses neveux au château des McPicsou en Écosse où il espère trouver le trésor des templiers, mais il découvre que la gardienne qu'il a embauchée n'est pas une inconnue, tandis que d'autres personnes s'intéressent au trésor. (history)
de			Suche nach Templerschatz auf Duckenburgh
it			Zio Paperone, accompagnato dai nipoti, torna al castello dei suoi antenati per cercare il tesoro dei Templari. Grazie a un incontro con una persona che lui aveva cacciato dalla sua vita, Paperone fa il bilancio del proprio passato e si riconcilia (anche idealmente) con la propria famiglia. Questa storia dimostra la maturità di Don Rosa, che riesce a trattare in un fumetto Disney argomenti "forti": si parla di morte, del rapporto difficile tra Paperone e i suoi familiari, e persino di religione. (history)
pl			Sknerus powraca do zamku McKwaczów w poszukiwaniu skarbu templariuszy i... znajduje go! Niestety trafia też na współczesnego przywódce templariuszy i swoją siostrę Matyldę... Czeka go niezwykła przygoda!
