Castel Sant'Angelo
The Castel Sant'Angelo was a significant, cylindrical fortress located in the centre of Rome during the Renaissance period. An end point to the Passetto di Borgo, Ezio Auditore da Firenze scaled the Castel Sant'Angelo in 1499 during his infiltration of the Sistine Chapel. It is the highest View Point of any Assassin's Creed game. In a recent YouTube video, Ubisoft developer Jeffery Yohalem indicates that Ezio will infiltrate Castel Sant'Angelo to rescue Caterina Sforza.[1]
Trivia
- Castel Sant'Angelo was featured in The film Angels and Demons where the Illuminati had hidden themselves and four cardinals. However, it is unknown if they will feature the same passage way leading to the lair as an easter egg or in actual missions.
- The Papal Guards may be of high activity in this area as it leads on to the Sistine Chapel by the Vatican and quite possibly, the Guards themselves are trained here.
