Which receiving address does my block reward go to when mining through bitcoind?

Question

I'm wondering where goes the BTC as my bitcoin server finds a block?

Using bitcoind, I see no setting for a bitcoin address..

I guess it makes a new address for the reward.

Apparently, bitcoind creates a new address for the block reward and puts it directly in your wallet.dat file.

I suppose it is stored in your default wallet, but as a new address.
