gold vault
Bullion storage chamber
A gold vault is a heavily fortified storage facility designed to hold gold reserves, typically operated by governments, central banks, or financial institutions.
The term evokes images of massive steel doors, armed guards, and stacked bars of bullion: Fort Knox houses the United States gold vault.
By extension, any secure repository for valuables may be called a vault, but gold vault specifically emphasizes the precious metal stored within.
