Acre Citadel

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.

Patience, brothers. Soon we will reveal the secrets of Assassin's Creed: Rebellion – The Eagle's Shadow. This article has been identified as being out of date. Please update the article to reflect recent releases and then remove this template once done.

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.

In 1191, the Assassin Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad infiltrated the heavily guarded fortress, eliminated the archers patrolling its perimeter and then assassinated William.

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.
