Where is the shrine to cure vampirism?
The Shrine of Talos outside Whiterun is a convenient location to cure vampirism if you are within the three-day window of becoming a vampire, and you can use a Cure Disease Potion or activate any Shrine to achieve this. After three in-game days, the disease will have fully taken hold, and you will need to seek out alternative methods, such as finding the wizard Falion in Morthal, who can guide you through the process of curing vampirism.
