In this Hogwarts Legacy collectible guide, you will learn:
- How to open Eye Chests
- What is inside Eye Chests
- Where all Eye Chests are hidden in Hogwarts Legacy
Throughout Hogwarts Legacy, you will come across plenty of chests that only contain a handful of coins. But there are also larger chests, so called Eye Chests, which hold far bigger treasures. In this guide, you will learn where to find Eye Chests in Hogwarts Legacy and how to open them.
How do you open Eye Chests in Hogwarts Legacy?
Have you walked past one of these chests a few times but could not open it? If you take a closer look, you will spot a small symbol in the center of the chest. That symbol hints at a spell you learn from Sebastian during the quest in the library’s Restricted Section.

The “Disillusionment Charm” makes you invisible, allowing you to move around unnoticed. To open the chest, however, you should cast the spell from a safe distance. If you are too close and the Eye Chest has already spotted you, it can no longer be opened.
Hogwarts Legacy: What is inside Eye Chests?
A large chest fortunately has room for large treasures. Each one contains 500 Galleons. The in-game currency is very important in Hogwarts Legacy. Since smaller chests usually only give you a few coins, and earning a lot of money can be tricky overall, opening Eye Chests is well worth it.
Locations of all Eye Chests
There are 25 Eye Chests in total across the world of Hogwarts Legacy. They are split between Hogwarts and Hogsmeade and can be found in hidden rooms, homes, and shops. To make your search easier, we describe the route starting from the nearest Floo Flame each time.

All Eye Chests in Hogwarts
Inside the school itself, you will find 11 Eye Chests in total. To get around quickly, you should use the Floo Flame network.
Eye Chest No. 1
- Location: Use the Floo Flame “Hogwarts North Exit” and head toward the courtyard. Keep to the left and go up the stone stairs. Do not go through the door directly at the top of the stairs. Instead, turn around and take the other door. You will find the first Eye Chest behind it.
Eye Chest No. 2
- Location: Not far from the first Eye Chest, you will find the Floo Flame “Bell Tower Courtyard”. Head up the stairs immediately to the left, all the way to the top. At the end of a narrow corridor, you will find the Eye Chest.
Eye Chest No. 3
- Location: Also in the Bell Tower Wing, more precisely near the Floo Flame “Beasts Classroom”, you will find another Eye Chest. Go up the stairs in front of you until you reach a large door. Instead of going through it, take the narrow passage to the right. The chest is at the end.
Eye Chest No. 4
- Location: In the Astronomy Wing, use the Floo Flame “Defence Against the Dark Arts Tower” and go down two floors until you see a globe in front of you. Head right and, by your fellow student Zenobia leaning against a pillar, turn right again. The chest is in the corner.
Eye Chest No. 5
- Location: Also in the Astronomy Wing, there is another Eye Chest right by the Floo Flame “Professor Fig’s Classroom”. Go through the door and you will find it at the end of the room.
