Where to find treasure map of Castle in Resident Evil 4
Castle’s treasure map in RE4 can be traded for 3 spinels from the Merchant. He is available inside the very first room to the right as soon as you enter the castle. We highly recommend getting the treasure map for the castle as it will mark all the treasures on your map.
Castle’s treasures require a lot more extensive puzzle-solving and back-tracking. Some puzzles can only be solved with the help of Ashley later on. A few treasures can be fitted with ornaments in various treasure combinations to fetch a much higher price than the base model. The Merchant will always warn you if you try to sell the treasure or ornaments separately.
