This is a list of all heritage sites and landmarks registered by the [[International Culutral Preservation Association]]. A heritage site or landmark is a place that is considered to have special cultural, historical or physical significance. The list is sorted into three different categories: world heritage sites, regional heritage sites and landmarks, with each category corresponding to a different level of significance of the site. The category of each site is decided by the [[International Cultural Preservation Association|ICPA]] Committee, which consists of members from all over the world. The committee considers any site that is submitted in the #submissions channel of the [https://discord.gg/kVTjKSf ICPA Discord], and decides what category it fits in. |

A heritage site of this level is considered iconic on the server - it is something almost all people are aware of and know, even though they do not live in the country or region it is. Very few sites qualify as World heritage sites. An example of this could be the Zexenia Tower - A building which is both historically significant, and is iconic on a server-wide level. |

A heritage site of this level might be known all over the world, but is not "iconic" in the same sense. It is something, however, that you would direct visitors and travelers to see if they were in the area. Examples include: the Voter Tree in Mount Augusta and the Great Cathedral of the Eternal Coin in Tel Adam. |

This sacrilege of the Elder Mod community has quickly become one of the most recognizable builds on the server. It is especially unique in its construction as a six-sided geometric figure. The altercations at this altar have brought together players from all across the server to fight in friendly tournaments. The site is devoted to the the Order of the Elder Mod, the religious organization which rules [[Zen]]. Each of the eight central symbols represents a different facet of the religion and surrounding builds. |

One of the oldest, most beautiful and most influential cities on the server. The city has amazing history, beautiful builds and unique natural elements that makes it such a special location on the map. Even though the country of Amaryllis doesn't exist anymore, the city is still a very well known location on the server. |

Reason for categorization: The St. Lucia cathedral is, without a doubt, one of the largest construction projects undertaken on the server, and is certainly the largest religious structure. Despite still being under construction, the St. Lucia cathedral is already becoming an icon of the server and of the religious sects that inhabit it. As the center point of CivRealms' Christianity, it stands as a beacon that shines upon Norlund and as a symbol of the world. |
|||
Additional info: As with most cathedrals, the St. Lucia cathedral has been under construction for several months, and it seems that construction will remain at a slow, steady pace. Once completed, it will be the largest religious structure and one of the largest non-military structures by volume. |

This bridge, built on the site of the original oak slab bridge built by members of Robb's Tribe to connect the mainland to Volcano Island, spans over 400 blocks, making it the largest (and only) suspension bridge on the server. Built over two months (without the aid of a bastion field) using wood imported from across the continent, Robb's Tribe Memorial Bridge is an important part of Wheatistan's history, as well as an impressive feat of engineering. |

Although Mount Augusta is well known, this tree's historical and cultural significance is limited to the region, and therefore the site is a regional heritage site. |

Mount Mountain is a holy site in [[Alexandria|Alexandrian]] culture. It is said that the Hermit, a figure in Alexandrian folklore, attempted to perform a ritual inside the mountain, but that he failed and died, leaving his body to provide the nutrients that allowed the tree of Dionysus to sprout from the top of the mountain. The mountain and the tree have a lot of cultural significance to the people of [[Alexandria]], which is why they are considered a landmark. |

This is a list of all heritage sites and landmarks registered by the International Cultural Preservation Association. A heritage site or landmark is a place that is considered to have special cultural, historical or physical significance. The list is sorted into three different categories: world heritage sites, regional heritage sites and landmarks, with each category corresponding to a different level of significance of the site. The category of each site is decided by the ICPA Committee, which consists of members from all over the world. The committee considers any site that is submitted in the #submissions channel of the ICPA Discord, and decides what category it fits in.
Categories
World Heritage Site
A heritage site of this level is considered iconic on the server - it is something almost all people are aware of and know, even though they do not live in the country or region it is. Very few sites qualify as World heritage sites. An example of this could be the Zexenia Tower - A building which is both historically significant, and is iconic on a server-wide level.
Regional Heritage Site
A heritage site of this level might be known all over the world, but is not "iconic" in the same sense. It is something, however, that you would direct visitors and travelers to see if they were in the area. Examples include: the Voter Tree in Mount Augusta and the Great Cathedral of the Eternal Coin in Tel Adam.
Landmark
These structures are known on a local level, and carry historical or cultural significance for the local area it's in. Examples include: The Euthenia Carrot Statue, the Amaryllis Citadel, and the Kielsted Monument.
World Heritage Sites
Altar of the Elder Mod
Template:Infobox heritage This sacrilege of the Elder Mod community has quickly become one of the most recognizable builds on the server. It is especially unique in its construction as a six-sided geometric figure. The altercations at this altar have brought together players from all across the server to fight in friendly tournaments. The site is devoted to the the Order of the Elder Mod, the religious organization which rules Zen. Each of the eight central symbols represents a different facet of the religion and surrounding builds.
Amaryllis City
Template:Infobox heritage One of the oldest, most beautiful and most influential cities on the server. The city has amazing history, beautiful builds and unique natural elements that makes it such a special location on the map. Even though the country of Amaryllis doesn't exist anymore, the city is still a very well known location on the server.
Cathedral of Saint Lucia

Additional info: As with most cathedrals, the St. Lucia cathedral has been under construction for several months, and it seems that construction will remain at a slow, steady pace. Once completed, it will be the largest religious structure and one of the largest non-military structures by volume.
Robb's Tribe Memorial Bridge
Template:Infobox heritage This bridge, built on the site of the original oak slab bridge built by members of Robb's Tribe to connect the mainland to Volcano Island, spans over 400 blocks, making it the largest (and only) suspension bridge on the server.

Although Mount Augusta is well known, this tree's historical and cultural significance is limited to the region, and therefore the site is a regional heritage site.
