"Which is not even remotely suspicious", they added far too nonchalantly , before passing before a stairwell, a creepy suit of armour by our shoulder. The guides face froze- and they stared, eyes affixed at the top of the stairwell, at nothing we could discern immediately.....

This multi-tapped bath situation looks amazing. What could each one be for?

Photo of the bathroom from the OP. A small wooden panelled bath sits next to (slightly inside?) a tall wooden cabinet. Above the bath are what appear to be seven brass tap handles, one above the other.
