The Treasury in Resident Evil 4 is a room within the Castle. It is used to store valuables such as antiques and artwork. As a result, getting out requires you to solve a puzzle.

The Treasury puzzle is actually split into two distinct smaller puzzles. The main element involves four pictures with removable replica swords. Each picture depicts the life and career of a knight. You must place each of the four swords in the correct picture.

However, one of the swords is locked behind a gate. To get inside the gated off area, you must solve a separate brain-teaser.
