Asset Overview

Custom low-poly asset made with Blender and Gimp for the Cities: Skylines video game. Available on the Steam Workshop here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2057131986 The foundation of this convent dates back to the 12th century, and its gothic church was built in the 16th century. The rest of the complex ranges from the 17th to the 18th century. In 1815, the monastery served as a hospital for French soldiers after the Battle of Waterloo. It became a school around 1845, then was restored in the 60s to become a parish church to replace another church destroyed during WWII, becoming the Église Saints-Jean-et-Nicolas (Saints-John-and-Nicholas Church).
