Entrance hall (Ilvermorny)

The Entrance hall at Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is a circular room behind the front doors of the school. The hall is topped by a glass cupola. There is a wooden balcony on the next level that goes around the circle. The space is empty except for four wooden carvings that represent the four houses at Ilvermorny. The floor is made of stone, with the Gordian Knot etched into it.

The entrance hall is where the sorting ceremony takes place. The students wait on the edge of the room before being asked to come forward and be selected by one of the wooden carvings.
