Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is a fictional school in J. K. Rowling's famed Harry Potter book series. It, therefore, doesn't exist in real life. However, it is believed that the school is located near the Scottish Highlands in Scotland, Great Britain in the story. Most children who were wizards or witches from Great Britain and Ireland would attend Hogwarts as it is the only known magical school in this fictitious version of Great Britain. The Alnwick Castle served as the representation of Hogwarts Castle in the movie adaptations of Harry Potter.
