This article is about the plane of existence. For the temple in Neverwinter, see House of Knowledge (Neverwinter).

The House of Knowledge was a celestial plane in the World Tree cosmology model[5] and an Astral dominion in the World Axis cosmology model.[4] In the Great Wheel cosmology it was the divine realm of Oghma on the Outlands.[2][3] The realm had a strong connection to the magic of true names.[1]
