Solomon's Temple, or Holy of Holies, was the biblical First Temple of the Jews, originally constructed by King Solomon on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem. It was designed to hold the Ark of the Covenant, and a Piece of Eden.

History

The Assassins Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, Malik A-Sayf and Kadar A-Sayf were sent by Al Mualim to retrieve and secure the Templar treasure located here in 1191. Upon arrival, Altaïr violated the first tenet of the Creed by murdering an innocent, elderly man, whom Altaïr believed could have alerted the guards.

The Assassins found Robert de Sable and his men in the temple's primary chamber, about to reach the Piece of Eden. Altaïr broke the second tenet by exposing himself to his target. Robert deflected the charge and ordered the Assassin to deliver a cryptic warning, before hurling Altaïr through a support beam, and cutting him off from the chamber and his Brothers.

Altaïr's arrogant actions and violation of the three tenets of the Creed in Solomon's Temple led to his demotion to the rank of Novice.
