Knight's Hospital, also known as the Hospital of the Knights of Midsummer's Day, is a location in Rhodes.
In 2012, Knight's Hospital was used by Abstergo Industries as a simulated training location, in the second stage of the Animi Training Program.
The area was composed of a large castle, inhabited by patients or injured knights, and the surrounding town. Small markets were set up in and around the castle, with a large part having located themselves in one of the corners of the area. The town also featured multiple churches, a kind of plaza with a fountain and the famed Temple of Apollo. This entire community was enclosed by a vast wall, with numerous battlements.
Knight's Hospital, like all the simulated locations in the primary and secondary stage, had two aesthetic variations. As such, it could be utilized during the day or the night.
History
The construction of the castle was decided by Antoni de Fluvià, but work began only three years after his death in 1440. Despite the work continuing under the magister of Jean Bonpart de Lastic, it was only completed in 1489 by Pierre d' Aubusson.
In 1522, the patients of the hospital came to the assistance of the knights, in order to help push back the invasion of Suleiman I. Despite their aid, the Knights of Rhodes were defeated, with the surviving members being allowed to withdraw to Sicily.
