Our Indiana Jones and the Great Circle guide will show you how to reach the “House of God” mystery and how to solve the puzzle.
How to find the ‘House of God’ puzzle
The “House of God” puzzle, formally categorized as a “Mystery” in your journal, is located on a high floor at the south end of the Vatican’s Belvedere Courtyard.
The Blackshirts are building a stage at the end of the courtyard. Head around to the right side, and then sneak behind it. Use your whip to the climb the scaffolding, take a left (and punch the fascist waiting for you), and then climb more scaffolding.
At the top, you can hop through an open window into a hallway. The “House of God” puzzle box will be right ahead of you.
How to solve the ‘House of God’ puzzle box
When you first approach the “House of God” puzzle box, grab the Cleaning Note from the top. This isn’t really a hint — it just says that there are hidden compartments. Reading the note puts the “House of God” mystery in your journal.
Look at the front of the puzzle box and interact with the lever. Slide it all the way to the right and you’ll hear a clunk.
This opens a door on the left side. Inside, you’ll find a Relief Medallion. Pick it up and then interact with the lever again. Slide the lever all the way to the left for another clunk.
This opens a panel on the right side. Inside, there’s a Relief Medallion-shaped hole. Place the medallion. When you hear another clunk, a panel opens back over on the left side. Head over and grab the Golden Chalice.
Place the chalice in the square on top of the puzzle box in front of the model. This opens the final secret panel and reveals the Vatican Relics Exploration Book. This map guide adds the location of a relic to your map.
