Colditz Castle Floor plan

Description
Colditz Castle [en.wikipedia.org] is a Renaissance castle located in the town of Colditz (between Leipzig, Dresden and Chemnitz, in the state of Saxony) in Germany, famous for being used as a prisoner of war camp during World War II for Allied officers, who had repeatedly tried to escape from other camps.

This is the floor plan recreated from actual plans at an approximate scale of 1:1. The player has the layout of the spaces with their walls and foundations, as well as the location of the different rooms, as they appear in the famous board game Escape from Colditz [en.wikipedia.org], and little else.

With sufficient funds you must lay the electrical and water lines and place the necessary furniture in the different rooms, which you can respect, divide or relocate as you wish.

Once the interior of the castle is finished, you must hire the necessary staff and begin receiving prisoners.

For quick reference, the brick walls were where the German barracks were located and the concrete walls were the area where the prisoners were housed and lived.

Ideal environment if you play with the Prisoners of War Reinstalled mod.

Map settings activated:

Well, like I said, it's the actual floor plan of the castle. The officers' cells were located there (I really don't know if they were individual or dormitory cells), but the largest (next to the kitchens) were the "Senior Officers' Quarters - below -, Ordinance Rooms - above - and even a well of light there...

Like I said before, you can do whatever you want. Historically, I suppose Senior Officer cells would probably be single or shared cells, but for gameplay convenience, you should probably make single cells (depending on how many prisoners you want to hold and manage).

I have tried (a little) the " Prisoners of War Enhaced " mod in other prisons, and without being clear if it has still some bugs, the appearance of the uniforms is ideal for this map ;)

Well made, but the cells are quite large, I assume they should be dormitories instead?
