The '''Dome of the Rock''' is an {{Wiki|Islam|Islamic}} {{Wiki|mosque}} and major landmark located in the city of [[Jerusalem]]. It was built between 689 and 691 CE atop of the [[Temple Mount]], and the landmark was believed to be built on the farthest point on Earth that Islam's founder, Muhammad, came to during the {{Wiki|Isra and Mi'raj|Night Journey}}.<br />
<br />
As one of the most recognized and important Islamic shrines in the city, the site of the Temple Mount is coveted by the three religions of Islam, {{Wiki|Judaism}} and {{Wiki|Christianity}}.<br />
<br />
==Trivia==<br />
*Though the dome appears golden in ''[[Assassin's Creed]]'', it was not gilded until 1963; it was covered with black lead during the [[Third Crusade]], had a cross on the top and was converted into a Christian church until Jerusalem was recaptured by Saladin.<br />
*A [[View Points|view point]] was positioned on top of the roof, as the top of the dome itself was inaccessible.<br />
*[[Solomon's Temple]] could be located beneath the Dome of the Rock, since the temple's entrance was somewhere around a building near to the dome.<br />
*The simulated map of Jerusalem in the [[Assassin's Creed: Revelations|second stage]] of the [[Animi Training Program]] took place near to the dome.<br />
