			==Trivia==
			*In ''Assassin's Creed: Unity'', despite the game claiming that the Parisian Assassin's sanctuary is located underneath the Sainte-Chapelle, if the player opens up their map while inside the sanctuary, or if they use [[Eagle Vision]] while inside of the sanctuary or above it at ground level, it would show that the sanctuary's actual in-game location during freeroaming is underneath the eastern part of the Île Saint-Louis subdistrict of [[Île de la Cité]].

	From around the late 12th century, the Parisian Brotherhood of Assassins began using a cave underneath what would become the Saint-Chapelle as their headquarters. A mechanism on the second floor of the chapel directed sunlight, and when an Assassin medallion was placed in it, the chandeliers would rearrange, allowing the Assassin to reach a beam. Once there, a hole would open in the floor beneath, and the Assassin could perform a [[Leap of Faith]] into the sanctuary below. The sanctuary connected to a series of [[tunnels]] beneath Paris, which allowed the Brotherhood to easily navigate the city.<ref name="ACU">''Assassin's Creed: Unity''</ref>		From around the late 12th century, the Parisian Brotherhood of Assassins began using a cave underneath what would become the Saint-Chapelle as their headquarters.

	Around 1759, a passage was also built between the sanctuary and the [[Café Théâtre]], a business front for the Assassins.

In April 1791, he discovered that Bellec had murdered the [[Mentor]] [[Honoré Gabriel Riqueti, comte de Mirabeau\|Honoré Mirabeau]]. A swordfight ensued between the two Assassins at the chapel, during which the building's large rose window was shattered, and Bellec was killed.

	The chapel windows took up all the space between the structural supports, meaning that the stonework was seemingly invisible. The chapel stands out for being completed in 1248, meaning a relatively short construction period. It was set on two levels; the lower level was for Parisians and people of the court, while the upper level was for the king and his family. The crown of thorns was kept in a reliquary to which only the king held the key. On important occasions, he would present the crown to a kneeling congregation.<ref name="~~ACU~~"/>		The chapel windows took up all the space between the structural supports, meaning that the stonework was seemingly invisible.
