This article describes all of the dungeons occupied by Goblins, including both random leveled goblins and tribal goblins. Goblin dungeons in general have poor quality loot, because of the special "goblin" leveled lists used to generate armor and weapons.

This table lists all of the dungeons in Oblivion that contain multiple Goblins, a boss-level Goblin, and/or a boss-level Goblin chest. There are some occasional standard and healing variety Goblin chests located in other dungeons that are not included in this listing.
