==History==
Originally the Templar headquarters in Venice, by 1507 it had been abandoned. An informant within the Templar Order set up a meeting with the group of Assassins sent to establish a new branch in Venice, though this turned out to be an ambush. The Templars had booby-trapped the entrance, triggering a collapse around the Assassins. Unknown to the Templars, the Assassins survived and decided to rebuild the base under their nose.Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood of Venice – Forgotten HeadquartersAssassin's Creed: Brotherhood of Venice – The Mask
