Hogwarts Potions Classroom

The Potions Classroom was one of the large dungeons - "Potions lessons took place in one of the large dungeons." in Hogwarts Castle, used for Potions lessons.
==Description==
It was large enough to allow at least twenty students to work and its walls were lined with pickled animals in glass jars. In one corner of the room stood a basin into which ice-cold water poured from a gargoyle's mouth, while in another was a student supply cupboard. There was also a blackboard on which the Potions Master could write the class's instructions. The room was especially cold, particularly in the winter when students were able to see their own breath. - "No one could wait for the holidays to start. While the Gryffindor common room and the Great Hall had roaring fires, the drafty corridors had become icy and a bitter wind rattled the windows in the classrooms. Worst of all were Professor Snape's classes down in the dungeons, where their breath rose in a mist before them and they kept as close as possible to their hot cauldrons."
==Behind the scenes==
*For , scenes in this room were filmed in the Sacristy at Lacock Abbey (in Lacock, Wiltshire, England). The high windows were partially obscured while filming, to suggest an underground location (which the Sacristy is not). For Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the Potions classroom was filmed in a set, at Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden, that had been formerly used as the room in which Fluffy guarded the trapdoor to the Underground Chambers (Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone) and Severus Snape's office (Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets).
