Windmere Manor strongbox puzzle location
The Windmere Manor strongbox puzzle is in a room on the upper floor of the Manor in Demeniss. We’ve marked the location on the map below:
I made my way into the manor using the first floor north-facing window. This helped me to avoid the eyeline of the guards around the property. If you choose the same method, head out of the door of the room you’re in and then left down the hallway. When you come to another door on your left, walk through it into the room and you’ll find the strongbox in the corner by the window.
