While playing as Ashley in Resident Evil 4’s new remake, you’ll come across a few puzzles. The first is the Grandfather Clock puzzle, and almost immediately after you’ll come face to face with the Mausoleum Lantern puzzle.

This puzzle introduces another two lanterns to the one you have already, and you must place them in the correct order to get the Salazar Family Insignia. For everything else you need in this chapter, read our Resident Evil 4 remake Chapter 9 walkthrough.

Including your lantern, there are three lanterns, and three pedestals to place them on. Each lantern emits light in a different pattern, a full moon, a crescent moon, and a star.

There’s also a pattern on each of the stones that the lanterns point at when placed on the pedestals. You simply need to place the correct lantern on the correct pedestal to open up the tomb.

The lantern that you are carrying as you enter counts as the full moon. Place it at the back.

The one you collect instead has the crescent moon pattern, place it on the pedestal to the right of the full moon.

The final lantern has a star pattern, and should be placed on the final empty pedestal.

All done, that will unlock the tomb so you can grab the Salazar Family Insignia. For what you need to do with it, check our full Resident Evil 4 remake Chapter 9 walkthrough.
