What changes have been made to Hogwarts throughout the series?












22















The question Does the exterior appearance of Hogwarts really change throughout the series? merely addresses the fact that Hogwarts does indeed change depending on what movie you're watching. I want to know what changed.



I'm looking for more examples of what all changed (visual comparisons, before and after, etc. are encouraged). As many specifics as feasible would be greatly appreciated!

    This will require a long, detailed answer just based on what is available and there are probably details which never will be. But it would certainly be interesting.

  • @RedCaio It was mainly an off-hand comment, a poor attempt at a joke. We're told that the staircases move (and see them doing so in the movies), so those are constantly changing.

There are some real complexities here, because some areas are approached differently, like entrance courtyards becoming clock tower courtyards, etc, and maybe one day I will use books and websites to try to clarify these points. But, let's start off with some clear changes:



Prisoner of Azkaban changes:



During the first two films, Hogwarts as a whole was decidedly flat. Hagrid's was reached by walking out the front door and across a flat field.



enter image description here



Compare to the change in Prisoner of Azkaban:



enter image description here



For Prisoner of Azkaban, the setting was altered dramatically to reflect Hogwarts' position in the Scottish mountains. The covered bridge was seen for the first time. We saw the stone circle overlooking Hagrid's hut, which was now much further from the castle.



enter image description here



The front door was reached via a courtyard rather than opening straight onto the lawn. Other changes include new towers here and there as well as the style of pre-existing towers being changed.



enter image description hereenter image description here



Goblet of Fire changes:



Goblet of Fire featured more of the castle itself as a whole as Harry and the dragon flew and climbed all around it. It confirmed that the changes in PoA were there to stay. Goblet of Fire is the first time we see the Owlery, a tower far from the rest of the Castle where the delivery owls are kept.



enter image description here



Order of the Phoenix changes:



There were changes in the overall layout for Order of the Phoenix which are more subtle, but the clock tower was seen more prominently and in a new position.



Half Blood Prince changes:



Half Blood Prince saw the introduction of the Astronomy Tower.



enter image description here



Deathly Hallows changes:



Looking at Deathly Hallows as one instalment, a stone bridge of sorts was added to the entrance mostly for a more dramatic siege. It appears to be that they moved the original viaduct from going across the front of the castle from left (near the entrance) to right so that it was projecting away from the entrance.



enter image description here



enter image description here





If you are interested in significant interiors, the staircases were changed dramatically.
Traditionally the stair cases looked like this:



enter image description here



In this film, Harry fights Voldemort on stairs which look like this:



enter image description here
(People debate that they are different stair cases, but I have chosen this second image as it shows that this large, straight group of stairs is just beyond the Entrance Hall, where it was not before.)



While the entrance courtyard changes frequently in the films, it certainly is much larger in Deathly Hallows Part 2:



enter image description here



This is from The order of the Phoenix - it looks large, but compare the number of gargoyles.



enter image description here

  • Let me know if you want me to change any of the things I've added. Also, I'm not familiar with what you mean by "entrance courtyards becoming clock tower courtyards" and "the clock tower was seen more prominently and in a new position [in OotP]" so if you have more details on that, that'll be most helpful. :)

The Whomping willow is removed in Half Blood Prince too. The whole area from where it was placed in PoA is gone and there is only a hill instead.

    In Sorcerer’s Stone, when Percy takes the first years to the portrait hole, it is located away from the main staircases that change and it is a lady in a pink dress. In Prisoner of Azkaban, the portrait is of a totally different woman and the location changes to the changing staircase area.

      ThruGog wrote a great answer on this topic! I just want to add a few points:




      1. The suspension bridge has been shown since Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone, in the scene right before the trio went to the dungeon where Fluffy was (I can't find a screenshot but the wiki page also confirms that http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Suspension_Bridge).

      2. Before astronomy tower was added in the 6th movie, there was a Defense against the dark arts tower which is shown from the 1st to 5th movie.
        It is also the same tower where Mcgonagall's office is in the 1st movie in the flying lesson scene where harry caught the rememberall(http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Hogwarts_Turris_Magnus).


      3. From PoA to Order of Phoenix, you can see the Dark Tower (the tower where Sirius Black was kept in PoA) in various scenes. This Tower is also removed in HBPrince along with the defense against the dark arts tower and replaced with the astronomy tower as ThruGog suggested. http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Dark_Tower

      Also the girls bathroom where moaning murtle was, changed from CoS to HBP. In CoS, the entrance to the chamber of secrets is present with the basin and only 2 sections of toilets, one to the left and one to the right. In HBP the basin where the chamber of secrets entrance was, is gone. And there is also a middle section of toilets:



      enter image description here



      enter image description here



      enter image description here



      enter image description here



      enter image description here



      enter image description here



      Now you might say that they are not the same bathroom but that would be wrong. In the HBP book,before Harry and Malfoy fight, Malfoy cries to Moaning Myrlte that he wont be able to kill Dumbledore, which means that it is the same girl's toilet as in CoS, since Myrtle is there.






      share|improve this answer
























      • "...which means that it is the same girl's toilet as in CoS, since Myrtle is there." No. We know for a fact that Myrtle visits other bathrooms multiple times, so I'm gonna need stronger evidence than Myrtle's presence to convince me it's the same bathroom. Especially since I doubt Malfoy entered the girl's bathroom and sought Myrtle out to chat with her. Isn't it far more likely she spied on Malfoy (like the perv we know she is) in a boy's bathroom, saw him crying, and he eventually began confiding in her? I think the book even confirms this, but I'm not sure where the passage is. :)

      One thing. It’s not really a physical change to Hogwarts a but instead of the layout being Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Slytherin in the Great hall... in prisoner of Azkaban, it was unknown, Slytherin, Gryffindor, unknown. Why did they do this?

It appears to be that they moved the original viaduct from going across the front of the castle from left (near the entrance) to right so that it was projecting away from the entrance.

        If you are interested in significant interiors, the staircases were changed dramatically.
        Traditionally the stair cases looked like this:



        enter image description here



        In this film, Harry fights Voldemort on stairs which look like this:



        enter image description here
        (People debate that they are different stair cases, but I have chosen this second image as it shows that this large, straight group of stairs is just beyond the Entrance Hall, where it was not before.)



        While the entrance courtyard changes frequently in the films, it certainly is much larger in Deathly Hallows Part 2:

        This is from The order of the Phoenix - it looks large, but compare the number of gargoyles.

          This answer is starting to look really wonderful. Would you be opposed to me adding to it here and there? :)

        • Let me know if you want me to change any of the things I've added. Also, I'm not familiar with what you mean by "entrance courtyards becoming clock tower courtyards" and "the clock tower was seen more prominently and in a new position [in OotP]" so if you have more details on that, that'll be most helpful. :)

        There are some real complexities here, because some areas are approached differently, like entrance courtyards becoming clock tower courtyards, etc, and maybe one day I will use books and websites to try to clarify these points. But, let's start off with some clear changes:



        Prisoner of Azkaban changes:



        During the first two films, Hogwarts as a whole was decidedly flat. Hagrid's was reached by walking out the front door and across a flat field.



        enter image description here



        Compare to the change in Prisoner of Azkaban:



        enter image description here



        For Prisoner of Azkaban, the setting was altered dramatically to reflect Hogwarts' position in the Scottish mountains. The covered bridge was seen for the first time. We saw the stone circle overlooking Hagrid's hut, which was now much further from the castle.



        enter image description here



        The front door was reached via a courtyard rather than opening straight onto the lawn. Other changes include new towers here and there as well as the style of pre-existing towers being changed.



        enter image description hereenter image description here



        Goblet of Fire changes:



        Goblet of Fire featured more of the castle itself as a whole as Harry and the dragon flew and climbed all around it. It confirmed that the changes in PoA were there to stay. Goblet of Fire is the first time we see the Owlery, a tower far from the rest of the Castle where the delivery owls are kept.



        enter image description here



        Order of the Phoenix changes:



        There were changes in the overall layout for Order of the Phoenix which are more subtle, but the clock tower was seen more prominently and in a new position.



        Half Blood Prince changes:



        Half Blood Prince saw the introduction of the Astronomy Tower.

                In Sorcerer’s Stone, when Percy takes the first years to the portrait hole, it is located away from the main staircases that change and it is a lady in a pink dress. In Prisoner of Azkaban, the portrait is of a totally different woman and the location changes to the changing staircase area.

                        ThruGog wrote a great answer on this topic! I just want to add a few points:




                        1. The suspension bridge has been shown since Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone, in the scene right before the trio went to the dungeon where Fluffy was (I can't find a screenshot but the wiki page also confirms that http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Suspension_Bridge).

                        2. Before astronomy tower was added in the 6th movie, there was a Defense against the dark arts tower which is shown from the 1st to 5th movie.
                          It is also the same tower where Mcgonagall's office is in the 1st movie in the flying lesson scene where harry caught the rememberall(http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Hogwarts_Turris_Magnus).


                        3. From PoA to Order of Phoenix, you can see the Dark Tower (the tower where Sirius Black was kept in PoA) in various scenes. This Tower is also removed in HBPrince along with the defense against the dark arts tower and replaced with the astronomy tower as ThruGog suggested. http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Dark_Tower

                        Also the girls bathroom where moaning murtle was, changed from CoS to HBP. In CoS, the entrance to the chamber of secrets is present with the basin and only 2 sections of toilets, one to the left and one to the right. In HBP the basin where the chamber of secrets entrance was, is gone. And there is also a middle section of toilets:

                        enter image description here



                        Now you might say that they are not the same bathroom but that would be wrong. In the HBP book,before Harry and Malfoy fight, Malfoy cries to Moaning Myrlte that he wont be able to kill Dumbledore, which means that it is the same girl's toilet as in CoS, since Myrtle is there.

                        • "...which means that it is the same girl's toilet as in CoS, since Myrtle is there." No. We know for a fact that Myrtle visits other bathrooms multiple times, so I'm gonna need stronger evidence than Myrtle's presence to convince me it's the same bathroom. Especially since I doubt Malfoy entered the girl's bathroom and sought Myrtle out to chat with her. Isn't it far more likely she spied on Malfoy (like the perv we know she is) in a boy's bathroom, saw him crying, and he eventually began confiding in her? I think the book even confirms this, but I'm not sure where the passage is. :)

                        Also the girls bathroom where moaning murtle was, changed from CoS to HBP. In CoS, the entrance to the chamber of secrets is present with the basin and only 2 sections of toilets, one to the left and one to the right. In HBP the basin where the chamber of secrets entrance was, is gone. And there is also a middle section of toilets:

                        enter image description here



                        enter image description here



                        enter image description here



                        enter image description here



                        enter image description here



                        Now you might say that they are not the same bathroom but that would be wrong. In the HBP book,before Harry and Malfoy fight, Malfoy cries to Moaning Myrlte that he wont be able to kill Dumbledore, which means that it is the same girl's toilet as in CoS, since Myrtle is there.

                        • "...which means that it is the same girl's toilet as in CoS, since Myrtle is there." No. We know for a fact that Myrtle visits other bathrooms multiple times, so I'm gonna need stronger evidence than Myrtle's presence to convince me it's the same bathroom. Especially since I doubt Malfoy entered the girl's bathroom and sought Myrtle out to chat with her. Isn't it far more likely she spied on Malfoy (like the perv we know she is) in a boy's bathroom, saw him crying, and he eventually began confiding in her? I think the book even confirms this, but I'm not sure where the passage is. :)

                        One thing. It’s not really a physical change to Hogwarts a but instead of the layout being Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Slytherin in the Great hall... in prisoner of Azkaban, it was unknown, Slytherin, Gryffindor, unknown. Why did they do this?
