Early in your Resident Evil Village journey, you’ll encounter the Duke, a traveling merchant who marks crucial treasure locations on your map. Understanding this system is essential for acquiring the game’s most powerful equipment.

Shortly after beginning your adventure, you’ll meet this friendly merchant who offers various items for sale. More importantly, he provides access to special treasure chests scattered throughout the region that require additional effort to unlock. These containers hold some of the most valuable resources available, including weapons, critical firearm upgrades, and rare treasures that fetch premium prices when sold back to the Duke.

While unlocking every treasure chest demands extra exploration time, the investment pays substantial dividends. You’ll discover two of the game’s most formidable firearms within these chests—the devastating magnum and explosive grenade launcher. Additionally, you’ll obtain vital enhancements for your sniper rifle and multiple treasures to significantly boost your Lei reserves. This guide details each chest’s location, timing requirements, contents, and acquisition strategies.

This valuable treasure only becomes accessible after completing the Beneviento section. Upon exiting the Beneviento residence, thoroughly explore the immediate exterior area. Locate the map section labeled “Garden” and investigate the house positioned there. Inside, you’ll discover the Beneviento ball maze toy near the entrance and a typewriter in the adjacent room. Positioned to the typewriter’s right is the Luthier’s Key, featuring a cello-shaped keychain that provides a contextual clue about its intended destination.

Return to the village center and proceed to the Maestro’s House situated on the southern edge of the middle district. You might have noticed this structure earlier during your investigation of the red chimney house; it displays a violin symbol on its door. Utilize the Luthier’s Key to unlock the entrance. In the rear chamber, you’ll encounter an armoire secured with a combination lock. Search the premises to uncover the code independently, or input 27-09-17 to bypass the puzzle.

Within the armoire rests the Maestro’s Collection treasure, comprising the F2 Sniper Rifle’s High-Capacity Magazine—a substantial improvement for the weapon—and the Steel Hraesvelgr statue, which commands a significant Lei price when sold to the Duke.

This additional treasure resides in the vicinity outside the Beneviento house, though it’s only obtainable after you’ve entered the residence. Along the pathway leading to the house, just before reaching it, lies a grave completely covered with dolls. Upon examination, you’ll observe that a portion of the headstone is absent, obscuring part of the interred individual’s name. You must recover the missing headstone fragment to access the concealed treasure.

Journey back to the main village area and navigate to the cemetery adjacent to Castle Dimitrescu’s gate. You should discover that a previously sealed small crypt has now become accessible. Investigate the interior to locate the Broken Slab artifact—the complementary half of the name from the Beneviento gravesite.

Return to the gravesite near the Beneviento house, but be prepared—you won’t find the area deserted upon your arrival. Apply the Broken Slab to the grave, and it will open, exposing Berengario’s Chalice, a valuable artifact you can vend to the Duke for substantial currency.

Mastering treasure acquisition requires strategic planning beyond simple location discovery. Experienced players should prioritize route optimization to minimize backtracking and maximize efficiency during exploration phases.

Common mistakes include attempting treasure collection too early without proper equipment, underestimating enemy presence during retrieval missions, and poor resource allocation when purchasing essential items from the Duke beforehand.

For optimal performance, always ensure you have adequate ammunition and healing items before embarking on treasure hunts. Many locations feature unexpected enemy encounters that can quickly deplete your resources if you’re unprepared.

Advanced players can complete most treasure collection routes within 30-45 minutes with proper planning. The economic return from selling treasures typically ranges from 15,000-40,000 Lei depending on the items acquired.

The game’s treasure system integrates deeply with its progression mechanics. Understanding weapon upgrade priorities and economic management significantly enhances your treasure hunting effectiveness.
