ACRE

The Hospitaller Fortress http://www.akko.org.il/en/The-Hospitaller-Fortress-

Unnamed Church with a large dome, located in the poor distric near the city's main gate (I can't find any information on this one but it's possibly based on the church of Saint Andreas which existed in the crusader era. Today, a new church built around the 18th century stands in its Place)

Maria of Jehoshafat Church http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Maria_of_Jehoshafat_Church
(Another structure that doesn't exist in modern times. A mosque called El-Zeituna has been built on top of the church)

Acre Port http://www.akko.org.il/en/Picture-Gallery-The-Old-Acre-Port

Saint John's Gate http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Saint_John's_Gate

Acre Citadel http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Acre_Citadel and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acre,_Israel#Citadel_of_Acre

Cathedral of the Holy Cross http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Cathedral_of_the_Holy_Cross
(This cathedral is part true, part fictional. Archaeologists have discovered the foundations of a large crusader church known as Cathedral of The Holy Cross, however, the church was destroyed long ago and nobody really knows how the church looked like. So the in-game depiction of it is fictional

Thanks. History happens to be one of my interests, so it was fun to dig up info. It's also pretty cool that most of the assassination targets in this game are based on real people :D
