Hi guys! I would like to propose a little quiz about Cossacks buildings. Which are the real buildings in which GSC has inspired the Cossacks structures? I share with all you a PDF file with my own discovered buildings, but there still are a lot we have to find! https://www.dropbox.com/s/84bzfetsmp40m70/Cossacks Buildings.pdf Do you know more?
The English Stables is based on Tower Bridge (silly, as with the townhall, as these buildings are late 19th century). Also King's College Chapel is in Cambridge, not London
Updated! You can see the file corrected in the same link Thank you very much. Do you know more real buildings? I think all the community together can complete the whole list.
Updated with some Swedish discoveries: -Swedish Town Hall - Riddarholm Church -Swedish Barracks 18th Century - Wrangel Palace I am using the Cossacks I models because I don't have the Cossacks 3 ones, and currently in Cossacks 3 there are just 8 nations.
Updated with some Swiss, Hungarian and Portuguese discoveries: -Swiss Cathedral - Jesuit Church (Lucerne) -Swiss 17th Century Barracks - Chillon Castle (Veyteaux) -Swiss 18th Century Barracks - Thun Castle (Thun) -Hungarian 17th Century Barracks - Vadjahundyad Castle (Budapest) -Portuguese Diplomatic Center - Hieronymites Monastery of Bélem (Lisbon) Do you know more buildings of your own countries?
I think you are totally right, RitterInRot. The Archbishop's Palace in Prague is almost identical to the Cossacks model. I have updated the file with your discovery. Thanks a lot! This can be a beautiful collaborative work for learning all together about Cossacks world and European culture
Hungarian academy: former Teleki-palace. It was demolished in the communist era.

No, Polish town hall is the one from Poznań: https://twitter.com/AlexeyGSC/status/765972301875712000. Real town hall: https://www.google.pl/search?q=ratu...UICCgB&biw=1360&bih=662#imgrc=HfambZETz-TkbM:.
You're welcome. I'm from Hungary, but the other buildings is not familiar to me. Btw I'll find out somehow
I love Hungary, I was there three years ago and I visited Budapest, Veszprém, Tihany, Szigliget, Keszthely, Heviz, Sárvár, Esterházy and Győr. Amazing country, and the history of Hungary is really interesting
Speculation: Bavarian Town Hall - Perlach tower from Augsburg https://www.google.hu/search?q=Augsburger+Rathausplatz&client=firefox-b&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjalauij7rQAhWBtRQKHU8ZC9YQ_AUICSgC&biw=1920&bih=947#imgrc=1HjXsuOQB6Lm-M: https://www.google.hu/maps/place/Bücher+Pustet/@48.3677423,10.8981111,227a,20y,41.57t/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x479ebd5126be44b7:0x55252c43e4615a03!8m2!3d48.3699995!4d10.8983425 Austrian Barracks 17th Century - Burg Kreuzenstein http://www.cookiesound.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/burg-kreuzenstein-vienna-austria-8.jpg
I have added the Bavarian Town Hall, I think is pretty evident, thank you However, I have doubts about Austrian 17th Century Barracks. I thought first in Kreuzenstein castle, but checked in detail, it is really different than the Cossacks model. Recently, I have found the Heidenreichstein castle, which is more similar to the model, but I still have doubts. Heidenreichstein castle: Austrian 17th Century Barracks:
You can now add Scotland to the list I found three for them: their Castle's real name is Cawdor Castle the town hall is Ballindalloch Castle Barracks 17c is Drumlanrig Castle the Cathedral could be Dunkeld Cathedral, but I am not 100% sure
Do you have a better idea? Look at other pictures too, and you'll see. The only notable difference is the middle part between the towers is lowered, but it even has the same top half circle part. In Cossacks, no building is 100% "correct" anyway. I think the devs just edited it to their own liking.
