Magincia is one of the Cities & Towns of Ultima Online.

Depending on whom you ask, Magincia represents the Virtue of Humility or the Sin of Pride (Humility's evil opposite).

During the Fall of 2007, it was attacked by demons, following traditional Ultima lore which holds that the city is to be destroyed for its Pride.

On most of the major populated shards, the invasion was defeated the week of December 2, 2007, though the city was ruined pretty much everyplace. Pieces of it are available as items called rubble and are used by some as decoration.

Magincia is on an island, and is accessible via Moongate or boat travel. Moongate travel to and from Magincia is cut off as of the time of writing (Winter 2007). On shards that "won" the invasion, there is a ferry from Trinsic. On shards that lost, such as Siege Perilous, Magincia is only accessible by boat.

Ultima lore calls for the city to be eventually replaced by New Magincia, a city based on Humility rather than Pride.
