'''View Points''' were structures high enough for an observer positioned on its tallest point to view the surrounding terrain.

==Trivia==
[[File:AssassinsCreed_Fearless.jpg|right]]
*In ''[[Assassin's Creed]]'', the "'''Fearless'''" [[Assassin's Creed Achievements|achievement]] refers to View Points as "Reach High Points". However, in other areas of the game, they are referred to as "Eagle Points".
*Also in ''Assassin's Creed'', Altaïr may activate [[Eagle Vision]] once he has synchronized with the View Point. However, in ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' and ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'', attempting to do so will simply have Ezio "interact" with the View Point, observing his surroundings again.
*In each game, the highest point was either inaccessible or not a View Point: in ''Assassin's Creed'', it was located in fortress of Masyaf; in ''Assassin's Creed II'', it was the [[Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore]]; in ''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood'', it was the [[Castel Sant'Angelo]] and in ''[[Assassin's Creed Revelations]]'' it was the [[Galata Tower]], or one of the Hagia Sophia's minarets.
*Throughout the ''Assassin's Creed'' series, an Assassin could be on the View Point at the same time the eagle was, causing the eagle to clip through them.
[[File:ILikeTheView-ACII-trophy.PNG|right|40px]]
[[File:HighDive-ACII-trophy.PNG|right|40px]]
*The achievement "'''I Like the View'''" could be obtained by synchronizing with ten View Points in ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''.
*The achievement "'''High Dive'''" for ''Assassin's Creed II'' could also be obtained, when Ezio performed a Leap of Faith from the top of the [[Campanile di Giotto]] in [[Florence]].
[[File:Toweroffense.png|right]]
*Once all Borgia Towers had been burned down, the [[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood Achievements|achievement]] titled "'''Tower Offense'''" in [[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]] was awarded.
*In [[Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines]], View Points were referred to as "High Points".
