Suspension Bridge entrance

The Suspension Bridge Entrance is a part of Hogwarts Castle. It is a little building located near the Gryffindor Tower on one side of The Quad. It has two turrets on the corners and overlooks the Suspension Bridge. It is a large entrance room, but it is not the main entrance hall. The large archway leads to the Suspension Bridge, while the Square Staircase stairs lead to the Third floor corridor.

In the 1995–1996 school year, a portrait of Nearly Headless Nick is located here. However, in the next school year, it is replaced by a locked area with a Hogwarts crest inside.

Behind the Scenes

 * The interior of the building is only shown in the video game adaptation of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and appears to be magically connected to the Grand Staircase Tower.
