Default quick question -

square... outside the tower?
that must be a euro thing..
and what if there is no tower?

in the USofA, it's a segmented circle, with either a windsock or wind
tetrahedron in the middle of it

Depends.
Any pilot on a cross country into an unknown airfield will (or should)
be carrying an AIP
No matter where they are in the world.
For the circuit pattern look at the square outside the Tower
That's why they teach circuit rejoins.
BTW
Do you know what to do to work in a circuit nonaudio?
Do they still teach that ?
