This changes only happend in the films I'm 99 percent sure hogwarts only went tru change in the battle of hogwarts before that not much change. The quiddich field gets turn into a mazes I think not sure for the 4th book that's about it.

[@o07t28]

@@JoeGaming93 technically Hogwarts went through changes in the books, too. If you pay attention through the books, you will see corridors change and rooms be in places they weren't in in different books. An obvious not intentional writer's goof up by Rowling, but still interesting and still relevant.

[@wdvorak]

You forgot the room where the Mirror of Erised ended up in (Philosopher's Stone) after Harry discovered the Mirror and it was moved by Dumbledore. Essentially, all of the rooms after Fuffly's room are hidden rooms.

[@kingscrub3386]

I've played through probably half of the Hogwarts Legacy game and never really thought to look around for secrets in the castle. Next time I play, I'm going to see if I can find any of the ones you mentioned here.

[@isabellagorman628]

I've always wondered what the students/teachers timetables looked like, and how they were delegated. re reading half blood prince atm and it says that after some time of arranging Nevilles timetable, mcgonnagall gave the paper a tap with her wand and he was on his way. off there's not much info in the books but it'd be interesting to see an average Hogwarts timetable. also accounting for the number of students to teacher ratio.

[@Stephen10188]

Judging by the class sizes shown and the fact that there's about 5 boys and 5 girls per house per year, there should be 2 classes of each subject per year. For a class like potions available to all years, that's about 12 to 14 different groups per subject, that's only 2 lessons per week per class if the staff have like no frees, assuming 1 staff member per subject (which is what's shown) trouble is that this is about half whats implied in the books for a students timetable. So there's inconsistency somewhere Either there's more staff per subject than were told of, or the class sizes are like 40 (an entire year group), or the staff all have timeturners

[@raymondben36466]

Probably didn't mention it because it was only there to protect the stone, not be accessible to students.

[@JamesDavy2009]

The movie didn't depict all of them and what I liked about that part of the book was that every teacher did their own brand of protection. IIRC, the order was Hagrid's (not a teacher at the time) Cerberus, Fluffy; Prof. Sprout's Devil's Snare; Prof. Flitwick's flying keys; Prof. McGonagall's chess set; Prof. Quirrell's mountain troll (not in the movie); Prof. Snape's Potion riddle (a logic puzzle not in the movie); and Prof. Dumbledore's enchantment of the Mirror of Erised.

[@Harry-Hartmann]

A Very Good Video 👍🏻

[@srayj]

Something I don’t understand is if Hogwarts was built with the intention of being a school, why did they have dungeons? In this situation are dungeons just considered to be a basement?

[@emankcin1701]

They had to use the full budget due to tax reasons.

[@michellemanrique8789]

its not only a school its also a castle☺☺

[@srayj]

@@michellemanrique8789 True, but if the four founders built it as a school from scratch, not just repurposing a castle that already existed, then why would they put dungeons in it? Even though dungeons are a staple of castles, it just seems like an odd addition for a school to have.

[@charleswhite3934]

My guess is during wars it could be used as a fortress or a bastion for students and civilians so they needed a dungeon incase or prisoners or potential problems

[@gavenmace7779]

@@srayj people would use any large buildings historically for protection in times of wars and what not. stone churches, castles, manor houses would all likely have a basement of sort for storage or the reasons I mentioned, Hogwarts isnt much different. Dungeon just sounds better, it would just be a little weird to call it a basement thats as large as a castle floor. It just story after all, no reason to get technical

[@edopronk1303]

Great video and list. Really missing was only the hole in the 3th floor, guarded by Fluffy, and the consequent rooms. And of course the headmasters office! And if you are nitpicking, while you mentioned the classrooms, then the different houses and their rooms would be fitting. The room where Firenze did divination? The great hall and the room besides it, where the first years wait, the 4th book champions gather (and Dumbledore ask Harry calmly). I found the list already good enough, at the same time: 'every' room...... The teachers room, where Harry and Ron hide to hear that Ginny is in the Chamber of secrets. Of course Filch his office. The trophy room and the library you did mention in passing. These are the ones that come to my mind. ;-)

[@audreyharty4859]

Agreed. Definitely forgot Firenze's divination classroom, and I thought the common rooms should be included, too, since each one is hidden from three-quarters of the students, the classroom where Harry finds the Mirror of Erised, and other empty classrooms, and the potions ingredients storage room and Snape's private potions and ingredients storage room (but those could be considered closets/pantries). I didn't think about the headmaster's office, teachers' offices, Filch's office, the teachers' room, and the room Fluffy was in and the chambers beyond the trap door there. Very smart.

[@stephenmartin6250]

By far and a way the best Harry Potter channel on KZbin

[@ivanivonovich9863]

One has to also account that the various dormitories were all set up to accommodate a varied number of students as would be accepted each year. Wheter it was for only one new student or for more than 6-10. In each of the houses. In Harry's first year, there are 5 boys and how many girls?

Correction regarding the room of requirement. you must walk past the blank wall three times, stating your specific request. Merely standing outside it and wishing will not get you very far.

[@JamesDavy2009]

I thought you had to think the request. The first mention of the room was when Dumbledore needed to use the facilities and he spoke of a room full of toilets that suddenly appeared.

[@michaelcalico8702]

I think you missed one, there were 7 out of school. The mirror was caved in, the whopping willow covered another and a thitd was behind the one-eyed witch. You got those, but Filch new the other 4, I think you only named 3,

[@davidpumpkinsjr.5108]

I love Hogwarts Legacy, but the fact that Hogwarts appears on the in-game map does fly in the face of the lore. Hogwarts is unplottable; you can't put it on a map. It would have been more accurate (and funny) if the world map had a big blank space in the middle where Hogwarts is.

[@zzmr_stretchzz8772]

tbh JK should just come out and say there are an INFINITE amount of secret rooms, hidden locations, and so on i think doing so points out how crazy magic truly is, like for all we know hogwarts only shows like 25% of its size and 1 spell could show the entire school/castle/building like the order of the phoenix building.

[@TheódórHelgiKristinsson]

Where do you find this information? Is some of it from the movies? The movies aren't all canon; some of the portraits in the movies are named after some of the staff that worked on the movies and such.

[@eranshachar9954]

I really love the video well done. The most interesting places of these are of course- 1.The chamber of secrets. Fun fact- When Salazar Slytherin designed the chamber the girl's bathroom wasn't there. So for anyone thinking he was a pervert then no. The entrance to the chamber was concealed in the girl's bathroom when Corvinus Gaunt did it in the 1700's. Long after Salazar died. 2.The room of requirement. What I wonder about the room is if the marauders knew about it or how many do know about it at all. Imagine you want to have fun with a girlfriend and you say to the room "I need a room for having sex."

[@JamesDavy2009]

Given the room is unplottable it would be a void on the map. To access the room, you and anyone with you will need to _think_ what you want then walk past the location three times before the door appears. For that kind of fun, I imagine the room would spawn the comfiest beds depending on vanilla vs kink.

[@eranshachar9954]

@@JamesDavy2009 Yes exactly! 😆Imagine if the movie bullshit of Umbridge separating a couple was real. I don't know why they needed to add that. As for the investment in the room design of the films it looked not bad just not how I imagined it when reading the book.

[@Mjbrowngraphics]

Hello there, I was wondering what music you use and where you get it from? I would like to be able to use it myself if possible, thanks :)

[@malagastehlaate230]

I would think that the castle just like the grand staircase... changes to suit the needs of the school... if another classroom is needed I imagine the castle just provides it. If a passage between certain areas is needed then the school would provide such a thing... Kinda like Hermione needing to get to several classes all at the same time and Dumbledore just so happen to have that time turner for her to do so...

[@albinokanickel4492]

Hey, can you maybe explain the differences between potion classes and alchemy classes?

[@JamesDavy2009]

Potions involve the brewing of magical liquid mixtures whereas alchemy is a more general subject exploring the magical properties of certain elements and their connections to astrology.

[@Mom0fTwins]

What about the 2nd Divination Classroom where Firenze taught?

[@raymondben36466]

If a teacher held classes in a room, it wouldn't be a secret. Don't know why it wasn't mentioned.

[@seangere9698]

You missed the second Divination classroom on the first floor. The one that Firenze started teaching when Umbridge sacked Sybill Trelawney and continued to use and teach after Dumbledore returned as head master of Hogwarts.

[@Josh-bq6rm]

Question: What about the Hidden Chambers from one of the games? Is it cannon? Like the Ice Vault, the Sunken Vault, and so on

[@cerboris521]

I'd be interested to know how Hogwarts is hidden. I assume the Fidelius Charm is used using Hagrid as Secret Keeper during Dumbeldores tenure as Headmaster. If so it begs the question, how Voldemort was able to find and attack Hogwarts in the Deathly Hallows. Any ideas?

[@lukefranklin7363]

It's not, it just has muggle repelling charms to stop muggles finding it, and I believe, although I could be wrong, it is unplottable and cannot be plotted on a map

[@leemorgan5560]

​@@lukefranklin7363think you are right it only mentioned muggles not witch/wizard.
