In the vast and mysterious world of Elden Ring, Walking Mausoleums are some of the most intriguing and valuable locations you can encounter. These giant, moving structures resemble mausoleums perched on stone legs, often with a bell hanging underneath. Players seek them out because inside, there is a coffin that allows the duplication of boss Remembrances rare and important items that players might want to replicate. With only a few of these walking mausoleums scattered across the Lands Between, knowing where to find all of them is essential for anyone aiming to duplicate Remembrances and fully explore the game’s depth.
What Are Walking Mausoleums?
Walking Mausoleums are mobile structures in Elden Ring that act like roving crypts. They carry ancient buildings on their backs and slowly wander predefined regions. Each mausoleum typically hauls spectral knights and comes with skull-like deposits growing around its feet or on its upper structure. Destroying these deposits causes the mausoleum to collapse or lower to the ground, allowing access to the interior. Inside, you’ll find a duplication coffin which lets you replicate boss Remembrances.
There are two main types of these mausoleums those with bells and those without. Bell mausoleums can duplicate any boss Remembrance, while non-bell mausoleums are more limited, usually handling only nonshardbearer Remembrances.
Where to Find All Walking Mausoleums
There are seven Walking Mausoleum locations in Elden Ring. Below is a detailed list of where to find each one, as well as tips for making them accessible.
1. Weeping Peninsula (Bell Mausoleum)
This is often the first Mausoleum that players encounter. It wanders in the western part of the Weeping Peninsula, toward the area near the Fourth Church of Marika. When you hear the distinctive bell tolling, you’ll know you’re close. To enter, target and destroy the skull-shaped growths around its legs until it lowers itself.
2. Liurnia of the Lakes Bell Mausoleum near Raya Lucaria
This second mausoleum is located in the waters northeast of the Raya Lucaria Academy. Approach via the East Raya Lucaria Gate Site of Grace, find a cliff edge, and wait for the mausoleum to come close. You may need to use Torrent’s spirit spring to reach its rooftop and then break the deposits there. Once cleared, you can access the entrance and duplicate any Remembrance.
3 & 4. Liurnia of the Lakes Two NonBell Mausoleums
These two mausoleums are found near the Mausoleum Compound site in eastern Liurnia. One is just north of the Mausoleum Compound Site of Grace, the other is a little to the south. Since they lack bells, they only duplicate Remembrances of non-shardbearer bosses. To make them accessible, destroy skull growths around their legs. Be careful these mausoleums can leap and stomp.
5. Mountaintops of the Giants Castle Sol Mausoleum (Bell)
One of the more dramatic mausoleums is found just outside Castle Sol in the Mountaintops of the Giants. Players should break the skull overgrowth on its legs to make it collapse. Once it’s lowered, you can enter its interior and use the duplication coffin.
6. Consecrated Snowfield Mausoleum (Bell)
This mausoleum is located in the snow-covered region known as the Consecrated Snowfield. It wanders near the Apostate Derelict church, northeast of Ordina, Liturgical Town. There is a particularly dangerous element this mausoleum can fire magical projectiles. Bring down its deposits while avoiding its attacks, then access the coffin inside.
7. Deeproot Depths Mausoleum (Bell)
The final Mausoleum is hidden deep underground in the Deeproot Depths. You’ll need to traverse large root branches of the Erdtree to reach its back. Once close, strike the skull growths on its surface to bring it down. After that, you can enter via the doors and use the duplication coffin inside to replicate boss Remembrances.
How to Use the Mausoleums
Engaging with a Walking Mausoleum is a multi-step process
- Locate the mausoleum by listening for its bell or scanning its roaming zone.
- Destroy skullshaped deposits on its legs or structure, depending on the mausoleum.
- Wait for the mausoleum to lower itself to the ground.
- Mount it (often via Torrent or a spirit spring), break the deposits, and then enter.
- Inside, open the coffin and choose which Remembrance to duplicate, if allowed.
Tips and Considerations
Some players have reported bugs when interacting with certain mausoleums. For example
- Some Mausoleums may not show the prompt to duplicate Remembrances, especially if they were already used.
- The Mausoleum in the Consecrated Snowfield is known to be particularly buggy for some players.
- If you jump too early to mount the mausoleum, you might fail patience is often required.
Why These Locations Matter
Finding and using Walking Mausoleums is valuable for any Tarnished who wants to maximize the rewards from their boss Remembrances. Since each Remembrance can only be traded once normally, duplicating them allows you to redeem both possible rewards from Finger Reader Enia at Roundtable Hold.
Additionally, the mausoleums add depth to the world design and lore. Their roaming, belltolling presence reminds players of ancient, mysterious motives and the hidden power of the dead.
