British Ministry of Magic floor directory



A floor directory of the Ministry of Magic is as follows:

''Important note: As the entire Ministry is underground, the higher the floor number, the deeper the floor is. (Although the texts do not normally use the prefix "B-" on floor numbers to denote underground floors, they are used in this article to comply with standard usage and for purposes of clarity.''

Vertical transportation directory
The main lift (disguised telephone booth) transports visitors from ground level to the Atrium on floor B8.

More than twenty service lifts stop at all floors between B1 and B9, inclusive.

Stairways probably provide access to all 10 levels in the Ministry. They must be used to access the courtrooms on floor B10.
