Dungeon Map

The Dungeon Map is a recurring item in the Legend of Zelda series. They are most often found in chests, which are usually guarded by enemies. The Dungeon Map provides a roughly illustrated complete overview of the dungeon in which it is found and includes information on the multiple floors of a dungeon, if applicable. When used in conjunction with the Compass, the Dungeon Map can show where certain objectives can be found. In each game, the Map and Compass will guide Link to the room containing the dungeon's boss, and in some games, the Maps will also direct Link to hidden treasures and other points of interest.

Sometimes, the Dungeon Maps do not display hidden rooms which can be found by breaking a weak wall with a Bomb.

In The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, the dungeon map has an image of Dodongo's Cavern on them.

In The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, the Dungeon Maps show the name of their respective dungeon written in Hylian Alphabet.
