7 CS:GO Maps In Real Life
Have you ever wondered if Counter-Strike maps were inspired by real locations?
I have, so I did a little research and found out that some of CS maps are based on locations that really exist.
Check them out and tell me what is your favorite CS:GO map!

Thank you for visiting my blog! I hope you enjoyed the article.
The one that’s obviously in Italy, isn’t in Italy. Have you done some research? First google hits shows that it’s in Norway. But you edited away the Norwegian flags. Lol.
actually… Predjama Castle is de_castle on CS:GO. Cobblestone have literally nothing to do with it. Cobblestone is not on caves and de_castle is. And there are even places there that are exactly like real life. Just check this 3kliksphilip’s video https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DD6subWa8hq0&psig=AOvVaw1pU_eTnZ-BXz3HSrd-LtuT&ust=1596621383731000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CA0QjhxqFwoTCPjmqKekgesCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAV
Castle Neuschwanstein is cobblestone map from csgo
The wingman map “Rialto” is a place in Venice, Italy. Just saying.
Austria is based on Hallstatt

If you see the Picture, you will accept.
The real life one of Italy dosen’t look very italian to me. Makes me think more of Scandinavia tbh (except the colour of the houses)

That’s not cobblestone, it was an old map named Castle
Thanks for the comment Ersin!
Maybe in previous Counter-Strike games the map was called “Castle”, but in CS:GO it is Cobblestone, I played on it 😀
I just checked, it seems that the map was called de_castle in Counter-Strike: Source
De_castle https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=208579464
OMG no, Castle and cobble stone are different maps.
Castle (de_castle) is from operation breakout. And this map is based on Predjamski Castle
Cobblestone (in cs source it was “cbble”) is totaly different map, and that map is NOT based on Predjamski Castle
Oh yeah. Really great. Thanks for this awesome list. 🙂 Who knows more examples of cs-real-life-maps?
de_canals is in Venice, Italy 🙂
runthrough is the map that is base off Predjama castle, not cobblestone. I mean, coblestone dosent looksimilar to Predjama in any possible angle…
Awesome!
