For me it'd be the "The Saxon Stories/ The Last Kingdom Series" by Bernard Cornwell and especially the 13th book "War Lord". It was quite a journey with many ups and downs. Some books were amazing and others not so much. But I really liked the final book! It was a good ending to a great series and even after 13 books, I still would have loved to read more about Uhtred, Finan and Sihtric. I've never reread a book, but I'm considering it for this series.

Series, The Dark Tower series. Stand alone 11/22/63.
I’m sure I’m not as well read as many here, but I absolutely loved A Song of Ice and Fire. Once I got into it, it was really hard to put down. Now if only he’d finish the thing.
The Wheel of Time, Jordan
The Locked Tomb. What a trip.
Kushiel’s Legacy. I’m actually on my fourth reread now!

I have, after many decades roughly 450 books on my shelf that are the always rereading.
A very few have lost their place there, and a few have recently gained it. I read a lot, a few hundred a year. The test is on reread. Some I enjoy but know that is it, once is enough. Some will hang around until a reread. And if I still want to reread then, on that shelf it goes.
I could list various but as you mention historical fiction the only one I have is Hild by Nicola Griffith.
Definitely the Gregor the Overlander series by Suzanne Collins
The Broken Earth trilogy, easily. Also, The Name of the Wind and its sequel – still waiting on #3 damnit!
Coldest Winter Ever Sister Soulja
The Golden Compass/ His Dark Materials trilogy
Easily Ready Player One
