Well, for starters, the real RLC isn't as quiet as in GK since it's filled with tourists. The church interior is an almost perfect match. The roof of the Magdalen Tower is also as it appears in the game - though it is connected with the musuem at ground level.



The bookstore wasn't closed when I visited and I even bought a book (Holy Blood and the Holy Grail) there. Also, I bought a bottle of "Berenger Saunière Wine" at a local café, which I'm saving for a special occasion.

Basically, the RLC in GK3 isn't a perfect copy for the most part, but the artists really managed to capture the character and atmosphere of the small French village. I can recommend a visit to all of you who enjoyed GK3.

I don't have any digital pictures of my own, but there are plenty at this site.
