Shrines are adventure map structures in the Heroes of Might and Magic series. Any hero who visits a shrine is taught a spell of the appropriate level as long as they have a Spellbook and the required prerequisite skills. They were first introduced in Heroes II.
The power of the spell taught corresponds to the level of the shrine. In most games, shrines are limited to level 3. In Heroes IV, they go to level 5 and there is a separate shrine for each type of magic.
Heroes V's Hammers of Fate expansion introduced the Magma Shrine, which teaches a Runic Magic spell of level 1-3 to a Runemage.
In Olden Era, shrines don't have levels. Instead, there is a separate shrine for each school of magic and shrines can offer spells of any tier up to 4. Additionally, shrines contain a choice between three different spells rather than only offering one.
