The Villa Salviati is a large villa located in Tuscany, just outside San Gimignano. Ezio Auditore infiltrated this villa with the help of Mario Auditore's mercenaries, in order to assassinate Salviati while he was in his bed.[1]

Also of interest is a doctor's stall in a small village just outside the villa.[1]

Database Entry

Made wealthy through his connections to the Pope, Archbishop Francesco Salviati purchased this Tuscan villa in 1475 in anticipation of becoming archbishop of Florence. He spent the next few years having it renovated in the Tuscan style, while plotting with the Pazzi family to invade Florence. Sadly, this left him very little time to enjoy it before his inevitable demise.

After the conspiracy went south, archival documents indicate that Salviati swapped his archbishop outfit with one of the residents of Florence, who was then lynched in his place, while he escaped to his villa.[1]
