Von Croy's Apartment is a level in Tomb Raider The Angel of Darkness.

Lara enters it a few days after Von Croy had been killed in there, to investigate. She want's to find information about the Obscura Paintings. She finds some stuff about The Sanglyph, the Cabal and the Lux Veritatis.

After collecting Werner's Jackal Walking Stick a guy, the Sweeper appears. He has been sent by Bouchard to eliminate Lara. When she returns fire, he will eventually flee outside, turning off the lasers at the apartment door for Lara.

There are also Lasers in the passage outside. Lara has to bellycrawl underneath those.

Information obtained in the level

By Von Croy's desk Lara finds information about the Lux Veritatis and

• THE LUX VERITATIS - Aha! Facts about the Lux Veritatis. They were a 12th century offshot of the Knights Templar. Dedicated to suppressing evil, ... particularly works of Sorcery and alchemy. Responsible for destroying Eckhardt, the Black Alchemist, in 1445. Or so it says here.

• THE SANGLYPH - There's information here on the Sanglyph. It says the Black Alchemist, Pieter Van Eckhardt, created an artifact of alchemic power, the Sanglyph. It was made in five metallic parts and hidden. Perhaps those where the metal symbols in the Obscura Paintings.

On the small table in the bedroom lies a book about the Cabal.

• THE CABAL - Let's see what we have on the Cabal... a powerful alliance of five alchemists and sorcerers in the 13 and 14oo's. Eckhard is said to have betrayed and murdered almost all of them to control their secrets. Now that IS interesting! It says the Cabal and the Lux Veritatis battled constantly even after the disappearance of the Black Alchemist Eckhardt in 1445.
