If you come across one of the monasteries whilst traveling on the map, you will notice in the background picture the letters MPS on a gravestone, which of course stand for MicroProse Software, or MPS Labs (the logo displayed in the Darklands introduction with the two gargoyles on either side). This reference is perhaps more poignant today since MicroProse have unfortunately closed down.

Darklands is based on history (whether true or not) of the influence of the Templar Knights, a powerful monastic order during the crusades which were eventually crushed by the Church (Pope Clement V) and the King of France (King Philip IV) based on their allegations with Satan, specifically Baphomet.
