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, as well as the main residence of Richard I of England during the Third Crusade.
History
The citadel was essentially a small town that was heavily fortified against outside attacks, with huge walls and battlements. It contained the quarters of William of Montferrat, a Templar who governed the area whilst Richard was absent fighting the Saracens.[1]
In 1191, a team of Assassins were sent by their Mentor, Al-Mualim, to keep William inside of the Citadel.[2] Al-Mualim's team of Assassins eliminated Templar patrols,[3] Crusaders,[4] and William's personal bodyguard, Isembart. From him, they learned that William was planning an ambush for Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad.[5] The team then disrupted the ambush,[6] allowing Altaïr to infiltrate the heavily guarded fortress, eliminate the archers patrolling its perimeter and then assassinate William.[1]
A couple of years later, Altaïr and Maria Thorpe met at the top of the citadel's tower, where they made love and subsequently conceived a son.[7]
