Here’s a step-by-step guide for finding the hidden bookcase in the Blighted Village cellar of Baldur’s Gate 3:
Discovering the Cellar
- Begin by exploring the Blighted Village, where you’ll encounter goblins and unravel secrets.
- While exploring, you might stumble upon the entrance to the cellar on your own. Alternatively, you can find guidance from the Apprentice’s Journal in a backpack within the Whispering Depths area.
- To access the Whispering Depths, click on the well located in the Blighted Village. This action initiates the “Search the Cellar” quest
Locating the Cellar and Bookcase

- Open these doors and enter the building. Once inside, you’ll spot a hatch that leads to the cellar
Interacting with the Bookcase

- Your characters will automatically perform passive investigation checks as you get closer. Successful checks will reveal marks on the side of the bookcase
Unveiling the Hidden Mechanism
- Unfortunately, attempts by your party members to push the bookcase won’t succeed
- Instead, search for a stack of boxes positioned to the left of the bookcase
Revealing the Door
- You have two options here: either break the boxes like a barbarian or gently move them aside
- Behind the boxes, you’ll discover a lever. Interact with the lever to activate it
Opening the Secret Passage
- Once the lever is activated, the bookcase will move, unveiling a hidden door behind it
