Heimskr's House is a house in Whiterun and the home of Heimskr, a priest of Talos. The small, one-room cottage is found in front of Jorrvaskr. It is one of three buildings that occupies the circle around the Gildergreen.

Quests

• Heimskr's house may become a target for one of the Thieves Guild small jobs: The Sweep Job, The Shill Job or The Burglary Job.
• After the quest Battle for Whiterun, Heimskr's House sustains major roof damage, and debris in front of the door makes the house inaccessible for the remainder of the game. As a result, Heimskr will set up a small tent next to the Shrine of Talos, but will take up residence in the nearby inn, The Bannered Mare.

Trivia

• The house is marked with an "empty" Shadowmark.
• Oddly, there are many skulls lying around the house.
