Acre Citadel

I wanted to ask you something. Which is... what's your name? This article title is conjecture. Although the article subject is canon, no official name for it has been given.

The Acre Citadel was a huge fortress located in the southern rich district of Acre and also the main residence of Richard I of England during the Third Crusade.

The citadel was secured by huge walls and operated similar to a small town within itself. It contained the quarters of William of Montferrat, a Templar, who governed the area whilst Richard was absent fighting the Saracens.

During 1191, the Assassin Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad infiltrated the heavily guarded fortress and assassinated William.

A couple of years later, Altaïr and Maria Thorpe met atop of the citadel's tower, where they made love and subsequently conceived a son.
