Biography[]
Destruction of Castle Rock Tower[]
After HYDRA had found the location of the Tesseract in Norway, Johann Schmidt executed an invasion of the town of Tønsberg and a raid on the Castle Rock Tower. Holding the Church Keeper at gunpoint, Schmidt told him the story of the Tesseract, touching a mural of Yggdrasil and finding the secret compartment containing the Tesseract. The Church Keeper told Schmidt that it was just a legend, but Schmidt found the compartment as the Church Keeper looked in horror. Eventually, the Church Keeper was killed by Schmidt's men.[1]
