Do you wish to become a strong mage? Here’s a guide on how you can unlock and get to the Frostcrag Spire in Oblivion Remastered.
If you are familiar with Elder Scrolls titles, you already know about purchasable houses. The good news is, you can do the same in Oblivion Remastered. Houses are special locations players can use as a base to rest after a long journey. There are many houses or properties that you can own and upgrade to increase their usefulness. The Frostcrag Spire is one of the more useful properties that is very easily obtainable in Oblivion Remastered.
Veterans know the location by heart, but newcomers can have difficulty finding it on the map. To help players out, here’s a guide on how to get to Frostcrag Spire in Oblivion Remastered.

Location of Frostcrag Spire in Oblivion Remastered
The Frostcrag Spire is a huge mage tower built on top of the Jerall Mountains in the icy northwestern corner of the Heartlands region. The easiest way to reach the spire is by starting at the city of Bruma, which is the northernmost city on the map of Oblivion.
From the city stables on the eastern side, you can look east to spot the Frostcrag Spire on top of the Jerall Mountains. The spire is nearly impossible to miss due to how much it stands out on top of the vast and empty mountain.
To reach the Frostcrag Spire quickly, keep following the rocky road between the snow towards the east. Soon, you can find yourself in the icy ravines between mountain walls. Keep heading east till the walls on your right become less steep, and start climbing them. The spire should be southeast of your location, so keep heading that way. Soon, you can find yourself at the Frostcrag Spire.
Owning Frostcrag Spire in Oblivion Remastered
After you reach the location, you can interact with the door on the western side of the spire to enter it. As you interact with the door, you get a quest on upgrading the Frostcrag Spire, which we will get to soon. However, you do have to complete a moderately difficult lockpick to open the door.
After you enter, interact with the book on the frozen hand in the middle of the room, named Frostcrag Spire Memoirs. We recommend reading the book if you are interested in the lore about the world. Additionally, the quest also gets updated with a bit of information on how to restore the tower.
After you finish reading the book, many mechanisms turn around the altar, and a huge room opens up the entirety of the tower. This officially marks you as the owner of Frostcrag Spire. There are many rooms that you can use, including a whole garden full of rare ingredients for Alchemy. Moreover, there are countless teleporters scattered around the tower. One section even has teleporters to all mage guilds in Cyrodiil.

Functions and Upgrades of the Frostcrag Spire
In addition to the various teleporters and the indoor garden, there are a few more functions that the tower has. They are:
- Living Area: You can take a rest here to replenish your health and pass the time.
- Vault Area: A safe location to store various valuables and items. The vault is guarded by guardian imps.
- Library Area: You can use many books to increase or learn skills.
- Altar of Enchanting: Add soul gem effects to various equipment.
- Altar of Spell Making: You can make your spells with different durations and effects.
- Antronach Altar: You can summon your Atronach follower. The three types of Atronach you can summon are Storm, Frost, and Flame.
However, you have to purchase most of these upgrades from another location in the Imperial City. In the Imperial City, head to the Market District to find the Mystic Imporium. The shop should be on the western side of the district. Additionally, you can set the Frostcrag Spire quest as active to pinpoint the location of the shop on the map.
In the shop, talk to the woman named Aurolinwae, who should be standing behind the counter. She sells the items that you need to buy. Do note that the upgrades are going to cost a lot. We recommend saving at least 8000 Septim to buy everything. You have to barter these items from her:
- 1x Frostcrag Alchemy Lab
- 1x Frostcrag Bedroom Area
- 1x Frostcrag Library Area
- 1x Frostcrag Vault Area
- 2x Magetallow Candles Box
These unlock the full functionality of every room in the Frostcrag Spire in Oblivion Remastered.
