In-game description

Key to the basement of the watchtower in
the Undead Burg.

The basement of the watchtower forms a stone
cell. There are rumors of a hero turned
Hollow who was locked away by a dear friend.
For his own good, of course.

Where to find

Boss reward

Darkroot Garden: tower beyond Moonlight Butterfly

  1. Leave Andre's workshop through the Titanite Demon room and enter Darkroot Garden. Follow the garden route into the stone-knight clearing and climb the ruined tower toward Moonlight Butterfly.
  2. Defeat the butterfly and cross its bridge to the tower at the opposite end.
  3. Climb to the top and search the dead blacksmith for the Watchtower Basement Key and Divine Ember.

Notes

  • Havel's tower: Opens the locked watchtower route between Undead Burg and Darkroot Basin. The Burg entrance is below the stairs leading toward Taurus Demon; the Basin entrance is near the Hydra lake.
  • Master Key alternative: Master Key opens these tower doors, so the butterfly route is unnecessary if you already have it.
  • Enemy inside: Havel waits in the basement. Opening either door does not defeat him or make the passage safe. His reward is Havel's Ring, not the key to his tower.
  • Later journeys: This key is removed when a new journey begins. Collect it again if you need to reopen its lock; unlocking the door in the previous journey does not keep it open.
