==History==
In 1889, days before its completion, the French Brotherhood led by Master Assassin Michel Moulin planned to bomb the tower over the fear of the Templars led by Konstanze von Visler using for the Engine of History.Assassin's Creed: The Engine of History – The Resurrection Plot – Chapter 31 On that day, the British Assassin followed his former lover and Austrian Templar Countess Konstanze von Visler and her decoy climb the tower. Confronting them, he was told that the girl besides Konstanze was allegedly their daughter Gisela. Trying to stop them, Simeon was rendered motionless by Gisela and the Apple of Eden she was holding.Assassin's Creed: The Engine of History – The Resurrection Plot – Chapter 32
Fortunately, Gisela was knocked down by Spider Wallin, who came to tell Simeon of Konstanze's long plan to frame the Assassins as terrorists and what the Engine of History really is. Confronting Konstanze, Simeon fought her and pinned her against a metal frame with his blade at her neck. However, Gisela pushed Simeon off her but unintentionally cut her mother's neck. Escaping together, Konstanze and Gisela used their gliding devices to soar down, but Konstanze's injury proved too much and she crashed, dying instantly. With no time to lose, Simeon and Spider sent a Morse code using the light fixtures to their allies below and stopped the explosion from happening. Ridding their explosive devices, the Assassins stopped themselves from becoming criminals.
Later, the Eiffel Tower was completed in the for the and became a symbol of France's new engineering prowessAssassin's Creed: Unity – Database: 19. Belle Époque and later became the central icon of Paris.Assassin's Creed: Unity – Database: 20. WW2
During World War II, the tower became a symbolic battleground. Adolf Hitler ordered its demolition, but his orders were never carried out, and the occupying Germans would later deck it with Nazi banners. In 1944, United States fighter pilot Captain William Overstreet Jr. pursued a German plane over the city, and damaged the fighter's engine. The German pilot attempted to shake off his pursuer by flying close to the Eiffel tower, with some claiming they flew underneath it. This did not work, and the Nazi plane crashed to the ground.
In 2014, a Helix Initiate reliving the memories of French Assassin Arno Dorian during the French Revolution went through Helix rifts to avoid detection by Abstergo's server sweeps. Two of these "server bridges" featured the Eiffel Tower, one set in 1899,Assassin's Creed: Unity – Fin de Siecle and another during Paris' occupation in 1944.Assassin's Creed: Unity – The Resistance
