Assassin Tombs

The Assassin's Tombs are six tombs constructed by Domenico Auditore across Italy, which contain the remains of six of the greatest of the Assassin's Order. The tombs were created as a dedication to their lives, with the bodies moved from their original graves to these Tombs.

Each crypt contains an Assassin's Seal, which, when accumulated, unlock a gate in the Sanctuary of the Assassins underneath Villa Auditore, hidden behind which is Altaïr's armor, the strongest armor of the time.

Santa Maria della Visitazione

A mausoleum under the church concealed the tomb of Leonius, whose seal bore a dagger.

An interesting easter egg happens in this tomb. Once you get to the chamber, pulling the lever then looking down in the water for a minute, activates a cutscene.

which involves a giant squid swimming in the water. if ezio pulls the lever again and looks in the water, the squid will

attempt to attack ezio. But he manages to dodge it.

Auditore Family Crypt

The tomb of Domenico and his wife is located under Monteriggioni; no seal is located here, however.

This tomb is a Uplay bonus which you have to pay 40 Uplay points to attain.



Armor of Altaïr


This unique armor is the highest quality obtainable. Altaïr created the armor to be invulnerable towards swords, maces and arrows. Dyes are not visible upon the armor, save the inside of the hood.

This armor was later buried in the rubble of Villa Auditore during the Seige of Monteriggioni, when Cesare Borgia ordered an attack on the small town.
