The Passetto di Borgo is an eight-hundred meter long elevated walkway in Rome, Italy, connecting Castel Sant'Angelo with the Vatican.
History
On 28 December 1499, the Assassin Ezio Auditore da Firenze fought his way along the Passetto di Borgo in order to reach Pope Alexander VI, Grand Master of the Italian Templars.[1]
Roughly four years later, after Rodrigo's son, Cesare, killed him using a poison-filled apple, Cesare used the Passetto to try and reach the Apple of Eden which Rodrigo had hidden in the courtyard within St. Peter's Basilica. However, this attempt ultimately failed, as Ezio managed to race to the location first and retrieve it, shortly escaping the Vatican afterwards.[2]
Trivia
- In game, the Passetto is depicted much taller and wider than it is in reality.
- In Assassin's Creed II, the Passetto di Borgo was wrongly placed on the banks of the Tiber River.
- In Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, the Passetto di Borgo was an out-of-bounds area.
