HARRY POTTER

The teachers from “Harry Potter” seem as if they only exist within the walls of Hogwarts. But Dumbledore, McGonagall and Co. actually also have a private life!

The “Harry Potter” films can be seen every week until Christmas: The weekly broadcast of the “Harry Potter” films on free TV begins again in late autumn. We list all the “Harry Potter” broadcast dates for you!

Teachers have a private life – a fact that surprised us even when we were at school. What’s even more amazing is that this also applies to the professors at Hogwarts in the “Harry Potter” series.

Albus Dumbledore, Minerva McGonagall and Severus Snape do not spend all 24 hours of the day in the cold walls of the magic school – at least not all year round.

Have you read the books? The book fans had to swallow at these 12 moments, because this is where the “Harry Potter” films deviate from the original book!

Hogwarts teachers also live outside the castle and are allowed to have a private life

While some professors actually live at Hogwarts, it doesn’t appear to be a requirement for the job. For example, Minerva McGonagall is permanently at Hogwarts at the time Harry Potter goes to school at Hogwarts. She is woken up several times during the night by emergencies and travels around the castle in her nightgown and dressing gown.

But that wasn’t always the case. Thanks to the Wizarding World website We know that McGonagall was married to her former boss at the Ministry of Magic, Elphinstone Urquart. They lived together in Hogsmeade until Urquart died of a Venemosa Tentacula bite after three years of marriage. The teacher then moved back to Hogwarts because she didn’t want to stay alone in the small cottage where the couple had lived.

We know from the “Fantastic Beasts” films that Headmaster Albus Dumbledore enjoyed traveling in his younger years. He also often went to his brother Aberforth’s pub, the Boar’s Head in Hogsmeade, when he wasn’t teaching.

Severus Snape’s house is even shown to us in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, when Narcissa Malfoy and Bellatrix Lestrange travel to Snape to have him take the Unbreakable Vow, which assures that Snape will protect Draco Malfoy with his life.

Also on the Wizarding World website “Harry Potter” author Joanne K. Rowling reveals that Snape’s house is in the small town of Cokeworth, where Severus Snape and Lily Evans (Harry Potter’s mother) grew up. Snape inherited the house after his parents died.

From the epilogue of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” we also know that Neville Longbottom becomes the new Professor of Herbology at Hogwarts and that he later lives with his wife Hannah Abbot in a small apartment above the Leaky Cauldron in Diagon Alley. Hogwarts teachers are not condemned to remain single forever and are also allowed to start a family.

Distance doesn’t seem to play a role in the professors’ choice of residence, because the Leaky Cauldron is known to be in London, while Hogwarts is somewhere in Scotland. Teachers can simply Disapparate from where they live at any time and Apparate into Hogsmeade and travel to Hogwarts from there. The castle itself and the area around it are covered with a protective spell that hinders the transport spell.
