Saint-Omer is a commune and sub-prefecture of the Pas-de-Calais department in France. It is home to the ruins of the Abbey of Saint-Bertin.[1]
History[edit | edit source]
Beginning in 1942, during the Nazi occupation, the German Templar Seneschal and SS Sturmbannführer Heinz Müller ordered troops be deployed towards Pas-de-Calais in search of a Piece of Eden, while also having Professor Lèo Dubois kidnapped[2] and taken to the city of Saint-Omer.[3] In January 1943,[4] a group of Assassins arrived at Saint-Omer, following intel retrieved from Müller's subordinate Obersturmführer Wilhelm Schmidt. In the nightfall, they successfully managed to pass the Nazis' roadblocks and Wehrmacht patrols that littered the town and eventually reached the Abbey of Saint-Bertin, finding it filled with Müller's SS troops. The group managed to fight off an ambush and save Dubois, though an attack on Saint-Omer by Royal Air Force bombers ended with the Assassins being trapped in the rubble while Müller escaped alive.[3]
