St. Aicard's Graveyard - Locating the Secret Entrance
After making the final pickup and unlocking the "Death Defying" achievement/trophy, as shown in the previous section, you've just dropped down from the balcony onto one of the mausoleums. Quick-save once more if you're avoiding the 2 dogs below. Now you're headed for the tall mausoleum at the bend in the path. Since Lara can't climb onto it directly, you'll need to jump down, run along the path, then turn right just before the two low crypts.
Run forward and pull up onto the mausoleum beyond the tall one at the corner. (You did this earlier from the other direction.)
Turn around and jump onto the taller mausoleum.
Turn right. Take a running jump across the path onto the next flat-topped mausoleum. Then drop down into the fenced-in area on the right.
Finally, climb up behind the angel statue and push it over to open the LEVEL EXIT.
Drop into the tunnels.
NOTES: Lara is unable to push over the angel statue before getting the strength upgrade. And, again, if you chose the Doorman route, you will finish with 7/9 pickups. If you came in via FRANCINE'S APARTMENT, you'll have 9/9. (screenshot) If you missed anything, you can climb onto the mausoleum and jump back over the fence. You won't be able to re-enter FRANCINE'S APARTMENT, but you can get everything else in this area.
DARK MODE: I plan to add optional dark mode for these pages, but my current priority is updating the walkthroughs. Meanwhile, may I suggest a reputable dark mode browser extension, such as Dark Reader? (Download only from trusted sites, like darkreader.org or your browser's web store.)
