'''Augsburg''' is the third-largest city in {{Wiki|Bavaria}}, [[Germany]].<ref>{{WP|Augsburg}}</ref> It was one of the nine cities [[Leonardo da Vinci]] selected to hide his research on the [[haven]]s in 1519.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]''</ref>

==History==
Just before his death in 1519, Leonardo da Vinci, afraid of possible interception, hid encoded information with trusted friends scattered around [[Europe]] under express instructions to destroy it should the [[Assassins]] not be able to contact them within a month of his death.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Letter from Leonardo</ref> After a first round of clues was uncovered by the [[Italian Brotherhood of Assassins]] in the cities of [[Florence]], [[Venice]] and [[Rome]], they then contacted the local Brotherhood chapter at Augsburg, passing along a letter from Leonardo.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Carnet de voyage 17</ref> Leonardo's letter about Augsburg informed the Assassins that the city is still resonating with the 95 theses that dissident theologian [[Martin Luther]] had plastered on the door of its churchs to encourage a {{Wiki|Reformation}} and, though the Brotherhood usually did not involve itself in matters of religion, one of the theses could correspond to [[the Creed]] and they should discuss it with Luther.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Mini-map: Augsburg</ref> Having received the quest, the local chapter sent agents to five landmarks to investigate.

Considering it relevant to the affair, Assassins visited two of the churches in the city, ''[[Dom Mariä Heimsuchung]]''<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Portfolio 05</ref> and the ''[[Basilika St Ulrich und Afra]]''.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Portfolio 13</ref> For the former, they entered through an open window and, during their search, noted something fixed against a wall in the room beneath the spire.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Card 166</ref> A closer inspection revealed these to be a section of the theses, containing some of the most controverse among them.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Card 008</ref> At the ''Basilika'', the Assassin picked the lock to a side door<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Card 154</ref> leading to a study, where another section of the theses previously affixed to the church's door was being kept.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Card 004</ref>

At [[Atelier Holbein]],<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Portfolio 24</ref> an Assassin spoke to [[Hans Holbein the Elder]], who did not see eye to eye with Luther's views and claimed that he and his {{Wiki|Hans Holbein the Younger|son}}<!- Considering he says "son" singular, this implies that Ambrosius Holbein has already passed.-- have been "fighting" against the reformation in their own way, slipping in their demands into some of their paintings.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Card 111</ref> Examining some of the completed paintings by the Holbein family more closely<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Carnet de voyage 15</ref> led the Assassin to notice that a panel in the background of the ''{{Wiki|Portrait of Bonifacius Amerbach}}'' showed some of the thesis.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Card 055</ref> [[Greta]], an illuminator who worked as an assistant to Holbein, overheard the dialogue and, having both recently finished her apprenticeship and a wish for adventure, offered to join the Assassin in their quest.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Card 003</ref>

Tracking down Martin Luther to ''[[Die Fuggerei]]'',<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Portfolio 02</ref> a recently-opened public housing complex, the Assassins paid him a visit. Luther had been aware of the Brotherhood, but seemed surprised to hear that their philosophies were compatible, requesting proof that the Creed could be conciliated with his Reformation.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Card 026</ref> Matching the last sentence in the plaque found following the water towers ("By protecting the weakest, we become stronger.") to Luther's 44th thesis ("By the very exercise of benevolence, benevolence grows and man becomes better."),<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Card 044</ref> the Assassins were able to convince the theologian that the modern preocupations of the Reformation and the Creed were compatible, and handed them the translucid sheet with a line Leonardo had given him for safe keeping.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Last Quest of Leonardo da Vinci]]'' – Card 070</ref>
