Abrunza Monastery |
This game deals with the struggle between partisans and nazi's, refreshing the historical distress and chaos. The architecture of this monastery forced me to study a bit about it and understand its relevance.
A monastery is functionally a school of service to Lord in different possible manners.

A view from Abbey of Monte Cassino gives clarity behind the inspiration of developing this monastery. This beautiful edifice on the hill of Monte Cassino plays with the elevation, embraces the Renaissance elements and beautiful landscapes bringing the fiction to reality for me. The Benedictine monasteries used to function as self-supporting communities for rural areas.
"Ora et Labora" meaning "Pray and Work"

The self-explanatory pictures broadly cover the architectural elements like, groin vaulted arches in the cloister and indoors. The cathedral bears elaborate columns, semi-circular arches, sculptures engrossing the romantic period. The courtyard connecting the transept to the outdoors had a perforated screen and tree housing birds.
