Thanks Gatos. I haven't owned the car long and the last owners will be of no help, as they were young Finnish junkies looking to flip the car for dope. The brackets and wiring looked stock on this but I guess it's possible that this is part of an aftermarket system, which would mean there is a separate box somewhere else that contains the (aftermarket) battery in it, and this horn I extracted was just wired into that. I'm hesitant to remove things to start tracing the wires from that horn, but it seems the only way to find out. All I know for sure is that there is indeed an alarm battery somewhere. The alarm was/is still triggered despite removing the main battery, disconnecting the central locking, etc.

Any other tips on where to look appreciated!
