When looking at the map, it’s possible to see that thelibrary is connected to the church area. So, the secret passage will either be in the crypt or in the tower. In the tower area there is not really anything to interact with, so the crypt is the best bet.

Players have to enter the crypt, and then they have to keep walking to the left side of the roomuntil they reach the end of it to locate a large stone with a figure engraved on it, with a lot of frames around it.
