Hey,
after updating to iOS15/iPadOS15, some model textures are missing. It seems more like a bug in Safari, but maybe some of you have an idea/solution/workaround.
For a quick look you can visit http://rundgang.stasihaft-dresden.de/?room=haftkeller , which jumps right into a room, where the problems gets instantly visible.
Here is a image which shows the difference in comparison:
Here you can find the model (only the room, no people):

If you download the model and and upload it to https://gltf-viewer.donmccurdy.com you can see the difference as well when running this on iOS 14/macOS and iOS15.
Thanks and cheers

Solution found: Reboot your device. Nice to see, that rebooting sometimes really helps.
Sadly, the problem returns after some time. Rebooting helps, but not for long.
Here is another topic which tries to solve the problem:
A gLTF model of a baseball park I’m using has 3 image textures. On desktop (macOS Chrome and Safari) the model loads correctly and the seats, grass, and dirt look correct. However, with iOS, the model doesn’t always look correct because one or more textures is black. Sometimes the dirt appears black. Sometimes the grass appears black. Sometimes the seats appear black. But, sometimes the entire model looks correct!
Occasionally, the app will crash with a “problem repeatedly occurred” error.
