After searching the cellar during the **Anamnesis** quest in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, you will encounter a locked door that blocks your progress. To continue, you need to find the key to this cellar door. However, the game provides no clear hint about where to find the key. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you locate it and move forward in the quest.
### Finding the Cellar Door Key
The first step is to speak with **Zdenyek**, who can be found at the north end of the monastery grounds. Talk to him about **Blazhena**. Zdenyek will mention that he suspected Blazhena of stealing food since only the two of them had keys to the pantry where the food was stored. He’d actually planned to get rid of her before she fell ill. He’ll ask you to promise not to tell anyone about his suspicions.
Next, find **Valerie**, the blonde maid nearby. Before you check her, it’s important to note that if you talk to Valerie first, she’ll refuse to speak openly in front of Zdenyek. So instead, head over to Blazhena’s room, which she shares with Valerie.
### Searching Blazhena’s Room
Blazhena’s room is in the small building at the top of the courtyard. Enter through the back right door and then go upstairs. Blazhena’s bed is the one closest to the window. Check the chest at the foot of her bed—you’ll find a large amount of money inside, suspiciously too much for a maid.
On a shelf near the head of the bed, you will find the **pantry key**. Take this key and then go back to talk to Valerie.
### Talking to Valerie and Investigating the Pantry
Valerie will tell you that she witnessed Zdenyek taking something from Blazhena’s chest and being harsh toward her. She also reveals the existence of a nearby cellar that Zdenyek often visits, which turns out to be the pantry. This pantry location will now be marked on your map.
Head to the pantry and thoroughly explore all three rooms. Examine the wine barrels, tubs of water, and crates in each room. Some areas will require lockpicking to access.
After investigating, Henry will realize that Zdenyek has been watering down the monastery’s wine. It’s time to confront him.
### Confronting Zdenyek
When you confront him, Zdenyek will ask to speak privately in a nearby field. You’ll have the choice to go with him or refuse. It is recommended to go with him if you want to obtain a weapon.
In the field, Zdenyek will attempt to attack you. Defend yourself and defeat him. Once he’s subdued, demand his axe. He will also surrender the key to the cellar door, which he took from Blazhena’s chest.
### Final Step
With the key in hand, return to the main cellar where you first found the secret door. You can now unlock the door and continue your investigation.

Following these steps will help you progress in the Anamnesis quest and uncover more about the unfolding mystery at the monastery. Good luck!
