Almost all the Harry Potter fans must have heard of the magical school where Harry, Ron and Hermione go to learn magic. For most of us, we could only imagine how this magic school would be like which is a place filled with magic and mystery.

Meant for children in the age group of 8-14, this set is sure to catch the attention of all Harry Potter fans around the world.

This set has over 1,290 LEGO pieces, 3 manuals and 11 Harry Potter LEGO mini figures along with trinkets such as books, jewels, maps for Harry and other characters to interact with.
LEGO sets are valued for the LEGO mini figures that ship with each set. You cannot purchase the LEGO mini figures separately and that is what makes them so special. The only way to purchase individual LEGO mini figures is through sites like eBay or Amazon.com. The LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle contains some of the most valued mini figures like Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Lord Voldemort, Professor Dumbledore, Professor Snape, Professor Mcgonagall, Professor Flitwick, Argus Filch and his cat, Mrs.Norris and 2 Dementors thus making a good cast of both heroes and villains.

Dumbledore’s office with a slide out stair piece on the bottom floor, Dumbledore’s office in the second floor with the sorting hat and Gryffindor’s sword above the office.
