📋 About This Mod
The Shrine of Saint Alessia
This mod overhauls the shrine of Saint Alessia from Wintersun.
I made some additions to the area surrounding the statue, with the objective of making it look like a proper shrine, mostly adding clutter.
The mod was originally meant to be just the standalone version so here's the story behind that idea:
The mod Wintersun was in my load order for a while, a fantastic one by the way you should check it out, and I fell in love when I stumbled upon the statue belonging to Saint Alessia. Since I started to actually know from Alessia through Vigilant, I think this kind of representation is wonderful, so I decided to make this mod so that people who don't play with Wintersun can enjoy this statue with a few extra touches by me.
But now this overhaul is also available for Wintersun! Enjoy!
There are plans for a Vigilant addon, replacing every Alessia statue with this one, so let me know what you think!
The addon will be worked on soon! It will be a separate mod since it’s only a replacer.
Almost there!
Huge thanks to Oaristys and CD PROJEKT for making these assets free to use.
Big kudos to the legendary robertgk2017 for making most of the navmesh work and explaining the process to me during it.
Big thanks to EnaiSiaion for making Wintersun and introducing me to this wonderful statue.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid download-to-endorsement ratio (34,628 downloads, 194 endorsements) shows it's being used and appreciated.
- Offers both Wintersun and standalone versions, so you don't need to overhaul your whole load order just for a shrine.
- Bruma addon is a nice touch for Beyond Skyrim fans.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in April 2024, so it might not be fully compatible with the latest Skyrim updates or mods.
- The description cuts off mid-sentence, so you're flying blind on some details until you check the files.
- Potential conflicts with other mods that alter the same shrine location, especially if you're running multiple overhauls.
For Skyrim players who use Wintersun and want a more detailed shrine for Alessia, or for those who want a standalone shrine overhaul without the religion mod. Also for Beyond Skyrim: Bruma players looking to enhance that area. Skip if you're not interested in shrine aesthetics or don't use Wintersun and want a simple drop-in.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use Wintersun, grab the main file; if not, grab the standalone version to avoid missing textures.
- Check the optional 'without additions' file if you want a more vanilla-friendly look.
- For Bruma users, install the addon after the main mod to ensure proper overwrite order.
