- Assassin’s Creed is full of history. Whether it’s historical figures, historical events and even historical landmarks. If I was to take a wild guess, I’d say there’s at least over 100 historical landmarks in all the Assassin’s Creed games combined. So what I want to do in this video is go over the best historical landmarks from every Assassin’s Creed game.

Assassin's Creed is an open-world, action-adventure, and stealth game franchise published by Ubisoft and developed mainly by its studio Ubisoft Montreal using the game engine Anvil and its more advanced derivatives. Created by Patrice Désilets, Jade Raymond, and Corey May, the Assassin's Creed video game series depicts a fictional millennia-old struggle between the Order of Assassins, who fight for peace and free will, and the Knights Templar, who desire peace through order and control. The series features historical fiction, science fiction, and fictional characters intertwined with real-world historical events and historical figures. In most games, players control a historical Assassin while also playing as an Assassin Initiate or someone caught in the Assassin-Templar conflict in the present-day framing story. Considered a spiritual successor to the Prince of Persia series, Assassin's Creed took inspiration from the novel Alamut by the Slovenian writer Vladimir Bartol, based on the historical Hashashin sect of the medieval Middle East.

Last video for 2 weeks until I am back from Thailand!
This video really highlights one of my absolute FAVORITE aspects of the AC franchise, and that's the gorgeous locations. I absolutely LIVE seeing all these old monuments during those times. Every place we go is so beautiful, and it's not just the locals, but also the peoples and their culture. Mirage did such an amazing job of portraying the culture.
Have a good trip man.
Have fun hidden one!
Artecthre is amazing that detail is beatiful and so creative
Hopefully make it to go everywhere wanna go for landmarks before getting old
One thing you didn't mention about Notre Dame: after it was heavily damaged by a fire in the late 2010s, Ubisoft actually aided in the reconstruction efforts. The 3D model they had constructed for Unity was so accurate to the original that they were able to use it as a guide to ensure the reconstruction stayed true to how it's supposed to look. So Unity's portrayal of Notre Dame actually helped save the real life Notre Dame.
the lead the designer must be very proud, her years of work replicating the cathedral being used as a guide for the repair of the real thing
No it did not, it is a common misconception. For a construction as important as the notre dame they would probably have its sketch and blueprints stashed so that in case of let's say a fire they won't need a ubisoft adaptation to rebuild it. A ubisoft adaptation that was literally designed with parkour in mind and had to avoid copyright laws
@@drknockboot Ubisoft actually did, just research it
“The company [Ubisoft] announced Wednesday it is making a contribution of 500,000 Euros to the rebuilding of the cathedral. And the Paris-headquartered game maker said Wednesday it will make its virtual rendition of the cathedral available to those involved in the rebuilding of the church.” - USA Today
I’m not sure how much the digital model was used to aid the rebuilding, but it actually was used
There's actually a documentary of how useful the 3d models of the cathedral were. They were some of the most accurate 3d models of any building ever created @drknockboot
I actually got introduced to assassins creed through their giveaway of unity after the fire. I now own every game
Growing up I was always extremely interested in ancient Egypt, when origins was coming out I was so excited I honestly can’t explain the feeling, and when I figured out I could actually go inside the pyramids I lost my mind, absolutely incredible to experience even today almost 7 years later
I just finished Origins a few months ago and almost couldn't let it go. I was also always a big fan of ancient Egypt and the world they made in this game was so captivating and interesting to me. plus the story and the main protagonist are one of the best in the series imo. hope you played the visual tour as well :)
Fuck Man... Origin was 7 Years Ago
When you know assassin's creed you knew it had to be there
Always thought Hadrian’s Wall and the many other Roman landmarks in Valhalla were interesting. Even more cool that you can still see the remnants of these sites today
Ya, honestly not sure why he didn't bring up Hadrian's wall at least. Definitely one of the cooler Roman points of interest in Valhalla.
Hadrians wall and the recreation of Winchester and Jorvik were really cool to me as a fan of the Viking era. The cathedral of Winchester is an amazing landmark imo
Could you do a video ranking the different sailable ships? (The Aquila, The Jackdaw, The Experto Crede, The Morrigan, and The Adrestia)
you forgot the origins sea missions with aya
@@eevanpennant-shah8871 no I didn’t forget them, I just couldn’t remember the name of the ship and don’t count those types of missions as being the same. That’s also why I didn’t include James Cook’s ship The HMS Pembroke either, it’s a one-off mission.
I've gone to Florence and visiting after playing AC 2 was such an experience. It does such a great job of capturing the grandeur of both Palazzo Vecchio and Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore.
Man I urge every fan of AC to visit Florence if they’re able. I visited last summer and it was so cool visiting all of the landmarks and comparing them to AC2. There’s also a restaurant outside the Uffizi museum that even depicts Ezio on their menu!
Ristorante Braceria Auditore 👌🏻
Indeed! it was excellent as well@@officialWensonMusic
What you brought to my attention is the further back in time you kept going in the AC games the harder it was for you to gives us information that Ubisoft could get simply because the further down the timeline you went the more of how much lost history was left behind even the evidence of things were reduced to rubble or demolished or burn down , stolen, pillaged and erased. Example, Origins, Odyssey, Mirage, Black Flag. Truly sad anyone else noticed?
And stonehenge is significant because to move those massive stones back in the time it was built is a mystery like how the pyramids were built. They had no tools that were capable of moving something so heavy.
Yh I don’t know why he was so dismissive of it
Your list was good. Ones I would have included would be The Dome of the Rock, The Lighthouse of Alexandria and Hadrian's Wall.
The Dome of the Rock was the main landmark I was aware of when I played AC1 and it was cool to find it.
The Lighthouse of Alexandria was just amazing to scale. It blew my mind
Hadrian's wall was just cool to me. I found it and ran down it for a while.
Cant belive how you just skipped many interesting landmarks in AC Black Flag… Mayan ruins in Tulum and Misteriosa and the Havana!!
loving your content mate. Could you do a ranking on the main themes from each ac game
Hadrian’s wall in Valhalla is awesome
I’ve had the pleasure of going to Florence a few times, chaperoning school trips. I’m a huge fan of how much it still feels like an old city. And your friend is right. Standing outside the Duomo at night is magical (even with all the people trying to sell you glowing mini-helicopters).
I think The House of Wisdom, and the Round City as a whole, in Mirage is fantastic, especially since these are lost places that no longer exist, and have not existed for so long, so it's impressive how that managed to recreate them
The game captures old islamic arabian culture so beautifully, in a setting only popularly known to most people in Disney's Aladdin
AC Mirage environment and vibes are incredible! The game looks crystal clear and feels alive. That’s what really stands out imo🙏🏻
You forgot about the reconstructed Lighthouse of Alexandria in Origins . It was one of the 7 wonders of the Ancient times along with the Egyptian Pyramids.
after the Burning of Notre Dame, there was the urban legend, that Notre Dame in Unity is so good, that it is the best 3D Model for the Rebuild
I love your vids bro i found you a month ago and i actually really like you not being a fulltime UA-camr because it really shows ur passion
How do you manage to make so clean vids without much experience
Keep up te good work man
Thank you, appreciate that! I don't know tbh, I guess it's natural haha
My favorite ac UA-camr, watched a few vids and had to subscribe to show my support
Fun fact: the secret chamber in the pyramids was part of a theory posed by the egyptologist that Ubisoft hired to help them design their Pyramids of Giza.
This archeologist is a firm believer of an alternative theory of how the pyramids were built. Most scolars believe that external sand ramps were build arpund the pyramid whike this was being built, and when the pyramid was completed then it was buried in an arificail mound of sand, and then they had to dig out the pyramid.
This guy supported the alternative theory that the ramps were not external but internal to the pyramid and the pyramid was built around the ramps. The advantage is that the ramps were hidden by the walls of the pyramid, thus creating inaccesible chambers and passage ways in the finished Pyramid. Ubisoft did what they did and made it possible to access this system because gmaeplay wise is more interesting in-game thus "predicting" the discovery of the hidden chamber. Ubisoft did a very good job of explaining this in the information they provided with the game and then later in the historical tour in-game, where you toured this ramps while they were very clear that no theory has proven to be the correct one.
Wow, this took much research to create this video! You really did a good job on this, i appreciate the effort!❤ Love it
Awesome video! One of my favorite spots is the Pass of Thermopylae in Odyssey
I would have said the temple at karnak in luxor for origins. when i visited it was simply massive and the coloured murals still survive.
The lighthouse would make more sense than sphinx
I took French for a couple years back in highschool, n learned a bunch about France and its history. Unity was such a great game for me, despite its numerous bugs. My birthday is July 15th, the day after the date of the storming of the Bastille, which is pretty cool to me. After learning so much about France and the Bastille, my favorite part of Unity was taking part in the battle at the Bastille.
Edit: the fact you didn't say Bastille makes me sad. But who tf is gunna say Bastille unless you have knowledge about it and it's importance right? Not surprised you didn't add it, but still a lil bummer.
Maybe he didnt mention it because the storming of the bastille was kind of disappointing in the game
@@felixputz5190 could be, it really was.
@@r3gret2079 there's a lot of amazing landmarks he didn't mention, esp from Unity and Syndicate, even Origins. these are just his personal favorites I guess..
The Buckingham Palace was also very interesting in Syndicate
I enjoyed Jerusalem especially dome of the rock, having been there in person. Was great to see. Fab video, thank you for the quality content.
How do you keep coming up with ideas 😂. This just shows why your the best current ac UA-camr and growing so fast. Keep the content coming bro
That means a lot! Thank you! My ideas are always on the spot, there's a lot to talk about that I haven't really seen many youtubers do
Too much time talking about the Pyramids and Sphinx and forgot to mention Lighthouse of Alexandria, which doesnt exist anymore but the one from Origins is a loyal representation of its glorious days
He didn’t forget to mention it. He’s only talking about two landmarks for each game
One thing that I probably like the most right after the stealth and the whole ac fantasy is how the guy weave in historical into the game and realism of the environment and such, especially in ac3. I really like how they make it believable that some of the events were caused by the assasins
Great vid
Surprised you didn't mention the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, but glad I learnt something new (had not idea about the Umayyad mosque)
Origins was the first AC game for me and my first thought was “ahh that’d be cool if you could see the pyramids in the distance” boy was I in for a good surprise
I pretty much agree with your video, but I want to include lighthouse in Alexandria from AC Origins. When I first saw it I was fascinated with it's look.
My people the Oneida are haudenosaunee like the kanienkehaka in assasins creed. It was cool hearing our songs and seeing our longhouses. Sad it didnt get a bit more screen time ;(
as someone who has played Black Flag 3 times, I would have to say that the most memorable historical landmark would be The Queen's Staircase in Nassau(you will encounter this landmark in the story progression). It's just so beautiful, you just have to be there to understand.
For Rogue, the most impressive thing you can see is the Northern Light(not a landmark, I know).
For Unity, they have a lot of landmarks, so I will recommend my two favorites. Les Champs du Mars and Jardin du Luxembourg.
Syndicate really excelled at doing these landmarks(even better than Unity, which people didn't talk about). I loved the Big Ben and the train stations.
Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag has a lot of landmarks, but there’s one I personally visited a few times which is the Queen’s Staircase in Nassau, Bahamas. I was surprised they put it in the game when I first came across it.
Check out creed 3 in NY the first president G.W. was inaugurated in the oldest church by Wall st. It still stands till this day from the 1700s
the open world of assassins creed never miss for me always fun to explore
Great picks, I hope you enjoy your time in Thailand!
Thank you Jay!
st John does exist inside Umayyad mosque, they built the mosque around st John the Baptist's church
cuz they couldn't tare it down so they built around it
Love the video but you forgot Al-AQSA mosque
Nice to see Alamut, the original Assassins stronghold (and not Masyaf). There is also a book called Alamut, a story of the rookie Assassin there that revolted against the leaders there (inspiration for the AC1)
You missed an interesting part about notradom
When it burnt down the game was used as reference do to how detailed it was. It’s ironic that their research and creation ended up being used in the actual recreation
I would prefer that you use the light tower of Alexanderia for origins
I don’t remember if the Roman forum was featured in Brotherhood at all; but honestly, that was my favorite place I visited in Rome. I feel like it’s pretty underrated as far as ruins in Rome go irl
You missed a few from each game. But still a good video ✌🏼
I’d hope you would mention the Palace of Versailles
Around the world in 80 Assassins Creed landmarks would be an awesome idea.
I love the bazaar from revelations spent endless hours walking around with my thieves picking pockets.
AC 3 is my favorite AC game and fun fact I have been to Paul revear's house in real life I as like 10 then so nearly 30 years ago now... it was a class trip
I would say for AC3 the best is Old North Church. They did a great job recreating it, it looks nice and is one kf thr highest buildings you can climb in the game.
You can still visit it today in Boston and looks very similar to the game.
I always liked Saint Peter’s basilica in Brotherhood because it has the dome of the modern version but the rest is the old church which is historically accurate to the time.
my fav Landmark is the Haggia Sophia and the Doge's Palace
Should've mentioned that Unity's depiction helped with rebuilding of Notre dame after the fire!
Also didn't mention the Liberation game!
4:58 no love for Venice?? 😭
Faneuil Hall and the Old South Meeting House are probably the most famous in aciii
I would have put Giotto's Bell Tower in Florence and St. Mark's Square in Venice as my favorite landmarks in AC 2.
I went to Topkapı Palace in real life(which was in ac revelations). Topkapı in the game and in real life is exact same
I would recommend Port Royale for Black Flag
Getting harassed by the beggars while trying to show off the landmarks in the 1st game is so real
I think one of the coolest things in AC is seeing this beautiful buildings and landmarks and then you remember they're centuries old. And they are that beautiful. Modern construction in comparison is so bland and unispired
I rage quitted on sequence 13 i never beat the games that had the 2 missing sequences
Its impossible to pick which is the best historic landmark in Egypt and Greece
Should’ve considered the Sphinx and Great Pyramids as one landmark collectively as just Giza, I mean surely the Lighthouse at Alexandria is far more impressive than the Sphinx
In Black Flag you can visit Maya Pyramids you forgot that
from the games I've played, I would go with
AC: the Dome of the Rock, and that's all because I didn't know the castle was a real thing and didn't know about the Umayyad mosque lol
AC 2: il duomo of Florence and the Piazza San Marco in Venice or the Ponte Vecchio, or also just all of San Gimignano maybe
AC Brotherhood: Coliseum and the Mausoleo di Augusto
AC Revelations: Hagia Sofia and the Hippodrome
AC Black Flag: Old Havana as a whole
AC Unity: Notre Dame and the Panthéon
AC Syndicate: Same
Of those I haven't played but know some locations:
AC origins: The pyramids, the great lighthouse of Alexandria, Abu Simbel (although apparently they renamed it "temple of Thoth" in the game because it's not at the right place at all)
AC Odyssey: the Parthenon, the palace of Knossos
So sorry to ask, new to the lore here..is there no interesting landmark in AC Liberation or AC Freedom Cry
Ure cranking out videos like crazy hooe u have fun on ure 2 week brake u should ask ure discord server some ac hot takes
I shall do that when i'm back!
Ammunition storage, insanity
I do agree that AC3 lacks some iconic landmarks. A lighthouse isn't as impressive as some other very historic buildings/structures featured in Ezio games and Unity.
You could say the same for Black Flag, but it has Mayen ruins in Mexico, as well as a Sperm Whale migration and a family of Orcas that can be sighted, which is pretty cool to see
How can u miss the lighthouse of alexandria in origins?
the Dome of the Rock has to be the most iconic landmark in the entire series.
Im gonna start counting every video i comment this on your gonna be Big i know it (video1)
Origins could be pyramids of giza and pharos though. I mean they are both literally wonders of the world
What about the Palace Of Versailles in AC UNITY
Solid lists but you did have some errors I think. For Origins, it should of been the Lighthouse and not Sphinx, especially since it's a Lost Wonder of the World and seeing what it would of looked like was breathtaking.
2nd you forgot Liberation & Freedom Cry . It's a shame so many content creators for AC ignore these games. I understand sometimes because the games aren't long enough or are "DLC" but they shouldn't be overlook. For Liberation you really only had 3 options...Congo Square, St. Louis Cathedral or Chichen Itza.
And to be fair, i can't make any of the top of my head for Freedom Cry but there prob are some but it's been a while since i played it.
Wait what ?? I thought AC 2 was in lots of Italian cities and brotherhood only in Rome
AC1 - The church of the Holy Sepulchre.
The most holiest place in Christianity.
12:00 mary read and james kidd i see what you did
Content is good, but gotta work on your parkour maneuver. There were couple of hilarious deaths.
Hadrian's Wall is in Valhalla, far more historic & important than Stonehenge
Not really, I think both are important
Stonehenge was as old as the Egyptian pyramids, and there is still some mystery about how they were constructed, and what its true purpose was.
Yeah not to be a stickler for detail here but you are aware that the clock tower is not big Ben that's just the name for the bell inside the clock
how can you not say the holy sepulchre in ac1...
For me it's jerusalem,
I feel really connected to it
Liberation where?
Bro how you forgot in assassin's creed one Dome Of the ROCK
and how you forgot in assassin's creed 2 Doge's Palace
I didn't forget. I just didn't include.. With that logic, I must've forgot to include the other 100+ landmarks from the other games right?
How about
Bastille prison
Palace of Versailles
Lighthouse of Alexandria
Saint Mark's Basilica
Library of Alexandria
Hippodrome of constantinople
Hadrian's wall
Dome of the Rock
Ziggurat of ur

If you think Stonehenge is boring and pointless then just say you hate prehistoric history.
Or you're just ignorant.
You been there?
Surprised you didn't use the lighthouse of Alexandria in origins and the colossus of Rhodes in odyssey
He always skips liberation
nah bro trust im sure you arent missing anything by not going to Syria 😂
