The '''York Minster''', now officially the '''Cathedral and Metropolitical Church of Saint Peter in York''', is an [[Anglo-Saxon|Anglo-Saxon]] [[cathedral]] in [[York]], [[Northumbria]]. 

==History==
On 1 November 866, while King [[Ælla of Northumbria]] attended mass at the [[York Minster]] during the All Saints' Day festival, the [[Great Heathen Army]] under the command of [[Ivarr the Boneless]] attacked York.<ref name="Chapter 3">''[[Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – Blood Brothers]]'' – [[The Boneless]]</ref> A [[soldier]] who witnessed the arrival of the Northern hoard burst into the [[church]] to warn the king, who calmly asked about their numbers. Hearing there were about a hundred Vikings attacking, he ordered his chief of guards to behead the [[Norse mythology|heathens]] and have their head hung on the city walls. Ælla abandoned his people and escaped the city when he saw they were losing, and Ivarr claimed York Minster. It was there he declared to the army they were replacing the rulers of the land and staying there, as the Anglo-Saxons did before them.<ref name="Chapter 4">''Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – Blood Brothers'' – [[Battle of York (manhua)|Battle of York]]</ref>
