Ezio inside Iltani's tomb

The Assassin's Tombs are six tombs constructed by Domenico Auditore across Italy, which contain the remains of six of the greatest of the Assassin's Order. The tombs were created as a dedication to their lives, with the bodies moved from their original graves to these Tombs.

Each crypt contains an Assassin's Seal, which, when accumulated, unlock a gate in the Sanctuary of the Assassins underneath Villa Auditore, hidden behind which is Altaïr's armor, the strongest armor of the time.
