Generated structures data file format

The Village.dat, Fortress.dat, Temple.dat, Mineshaft.dat, Stronghold.dat, Monument.dat, EndCity.dat, and Mansion.dat files are located in the data folder of a Minecraft level and store information about the generation of villages, Nether fortresses, desert and jungle temples and witch huts and Igloos, abandoned mineshafts, strongholds, ocean monuments, end cities, and woodland mansions respectively, in the level. Each is stored as a gzipped NBT file.
