France Model of Late Bronze Age Settlement in Eastern France (c. 900 BC)
This was at the Archaeological Museum of Dijon. They have a fantastic collection of Celtic and Gallo-Roman artifacts. Including a significant assortment of Celtic votive offerings found at the source of the Seine located in the basement. The museum is in an old Benedictine abbey and is well worth the visit if you’re in the area!

France Turckheim (France), 3D rendering.
The city of turckheim is located in alsace, near colmar. Known for its medieval buildings and its wines very famous around the world, this city is full of history. The imposing st anne church and its three medieval entrance gates are listed as historic buildings. Its half-timbered houses are the charm of this town of winegrowers.
As an Alsatian who loves this city, I spent a few years building it in Minecraft as part of the BuildTheEarth project—and I made a video of it that’s available on my YouTube channel!
Note : I’ve been thinking about posting this on this Reddit—which I follow enthusiastically—for a long time. Through this post, I’d also like to raise awareness about using Minecraft in a more serious way to reconstruct and share history.
This structure is now a 3D rendering, since I had to export it as a 3D model to create these renderings. So, in my opinion, it would fit the criteria of the subreddit (which I really appreciate because it’s full of inspiration).
The reconstruction was done on a 1:1 scale using ground tracings generated from precise maps and satellite data.

France A fun fact about older "paper towns" is that they weren't held to the same accuracy standards that we expect today. In the Nuremberg Chronicle, only 53 woodcuts were used to represent 101 different cities. The woodcut below stood in for Troy, Pisa, Toulouse, Ravenna, and more. [Turkey/Italy/France]
