Holocron Chamber

The Holocron Chamber was a room located in Tower of First Knowledge, one of the five spires of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. A branch of the expansive Jedi Archives, it was presided over by the Caretaker of First Knowledge.

Sealed off to all but Jedi Masters, the rotunda contained the vast majority of the Order's most coveted holocrons. A short hallway led into the rotunda room from the bridge in the central shaft of the Tower. Lining the hall were consoles allowing access to several holocrons at once. In the center of the rotunda, a pedestal was placed for the display of any holocron currently being studied by the Caretaker.

The highly advanced holocron technology within these chambers would remain mostly unscarred during the Raid on the Jedi Temple, no doubt due to Darth Sidious's plans to use their power to study Sith history. During Galen Marek's infiltration of the Temple, he visited the chamber. Resting on the pedestal of the rotunda was a holocron that, when activated, presented a Gatekeeper who demanded he complete the Jedi Trials in the bowels of the Temple.

When the Temple was destroyed by the Yuuzhan Vong, the chamber collapsed, along with the Tower onto the roof of the Ziggurat. However, Jedi Tionne Solusar was known to have visited the Temple before this event, and most likely recovered many of the holocrons stored there; if any remained.

The Tower and the Holocron Chamber would later be restored to their former glory by Luke Skywalker's New Jedi Order within the rebuilt Temple.
