Harry Potter Hogwarts filming locations at Durham Cathedral
Durham · United Kingdom
About this experience
The arched corridors and stone cloisters of Durham Cathedral are known as filming locations for scenes in popular films about a school of wizardry. The building is also a well-preserved example of Norman architecture. The columns, vaults and wide courtyard impress regardless of the story.
The cathedral is a place of worship, so be quiet and respectful. Comfortable shoes suit the stone floors, and a thin layer helps in the cool interior. Check entrance notices for photography rules.
