Based on what little is known about the Dwarven ruin of Avanchnzel, some scholars of Dwemer architecture believe it must be the outer chambers of a much larger site, access to which is now blocked. The automatons defending the place make it too dangerous to inquire further.
Avanchnzel

Avanchnzel is a Dwemer ruin in the southern Rift, south of Honrich Tower, containing dwarven automatons. There are several bookshelves in the ruin, as well as a lorebook which one?. A Skyshard can be found in the southwestern chamber, while Thzallek Eft occupies the south hall.

There is a dead Dunmer named Solvar in front of the ruin. If you head through the crevice north of his corpse, you'll find another skyshard, which is guarded by a sleeping bear. A chest can spawn just east of this skyshard.
