Ancient magic and secrets are scattered throughout the Hogwarts Legacy and it’s up to you to find them all. While some of these secrets are little easter eggs, others are quests you have to take on that require you to delve deep into dungeons and caves. The Cursed Tomb Treasure side quest will have you looking for treasure in an ancient tomb, but only if you can find the map. This guide will show you how to complete the Cursed Tomb treasure in Hogwarts Legacy.
How to Start the Cursed Tomb Treasure in Hogwarts Legacy
Cursed Tomb Treasure is one of those weird side quests that doesn’t give you anyone. Instead, you start the quest by finding a map in the southern part of the map after where the coast of Poidsear is. Continue south along the West Shore and you’ll find a huge mansion next to the West Manor Cape Floo Flame fast travel point.

Once you find the mansion, look for the mausoleum with the statue of a dark wizard on it. Light the bowl at the base of the statue with any of your fire spells and the statue will spin. Jump on the platform that appears and you will enter the cave.

Defeat the enemies inside and you’ll find the map sitting in the corner of the room you used the statue to enter.

The side quest begins once you get your hands on the map. This map may seem a bit cryptic, but it points to an area that isn’t too far away and what you would have had to pass to get to that area. You are looking for the Tomb of Betrayal. The tomb is to the north along the water past the castle of Poidsear.

Enter the tomb and continue through it. Take the occasional side path if you want to get your hands on some extra treasure. When you reach the room with the coffin, take the left path and you’ll come across a room with a moth door. To complete this puzzle, you must bring all the moths to the door, just like the butterfly mirrors found throughout the game. You can find the moths in the following locations:
- In the right room, trapped behind a spider’s web.
- In the right room, roaming freely.
- In the room on the left, use Wingardium Leviosa on the box in the corner to climb onto the ledge and collect the moth.

After going through the door, you’ll be in a room with a series of shelves on the floor. Consult the map for this and use the Flipendo spell to flip the tiles so they match their appearance on the map. Once done, a chest will rise from the center so you can collect your treasure and complete the quest.
