There are three religion-based factions in Starfield. One of these is the Enlightened. Players can pick Raised Enlightened as one of their traits during character creation, making them members of the Enlightened religion and giving them access to the Starfield House of the Enlightened.
As part of the House of the Enlightened trait, players get a chest filled with loot if they can make their way to the faction HQ. Unfortunately, the game doesn’t really tell you where that place is. That is why we are here to help players find House of the Enlightened in Starfield. Before starting this journey, if you don’t have the Raised Enlightened trait, the door to the House of Enlightened will be locked, and no key in the game can open it.
House of the Enlightened location
House of Enlightened is present in the New Atlantis region of Starfield. In New Atlantis, players need to head to The Well, a place that can be visited during the main story of Starfield. There aren’t markers in the game that can direct you to The Well, so you need to be familiar with the layout of New Atlantis. To enter The Well in Starfield, make your way to the Spaceport on New Atlantis. This is right where you land your ship once you arrive in the city.
From the Spaceport, make your way to Jemison Mercantile building, which has a number of flags in front of it, making it easier to spot the building. Instead of entering the building, go around the entrance and take the elevator down to get to The Well.
House of the Enlightened in Starfield is within the central area of The Well, so it should be easy to spot, with large text written on its walls.
Starfield House of the Enlightened Chest location
As said before, the players can pick the Raised Enlightened trait at the start of the game. This trait is important as it offers a chest filled with items from the House of the Enlightened to the players from the start. To collect this House of the Enlightened chest, players need to head to the house and unlock it in Starfield.
Inside the House of Enlightened, head down the stairs to your left as soon as you enter through the elevator. From here, follow the corridors and enter the sitting area below the main floor. You can find the treasure chest here, and it doesn’t need any key to open.
Rewards from the House of Enlightened Chest
You get the following items from the House of Enlightened chest as a reward in Starfield:
- Charity in a Godless Universe: Part I
- Charity in a Godless Universe: Part II
- Charity in a Godless Universe: Part III
- Charity in a Godless Universe: Part IV
- 5x Med Pack
- 2x Heart+
- Boom Pop! Cola
- Settler Poncho Outfit
If you only joined the House of the Enlightened for its rewards, there is a way to change your house. Simply go to Andy Singh and tell him you are no longer interested in House of Enlightened in Starfield. This will prompt him to remove your raised enlightened trait, and now you are free to join other religion-based factions.
House of Enlightened vs Universal rewards
You get almost the same reward items from both the House of the Enlightened and House of the Universum Sanctum Treasure chests. The only difference is the outfits and their accompanying stats.
- The House of the Enlightened outfit grants you an additional 10HP.
- The House of the Universum Sanctum outfit increases your O2 recovery by 5%.
