Ollivanders

Ollivander's Wand Shop was founded 382 B.C. It is located in Diagon Alley and it has a sign with peeling gold letters reading OLLIVANDER'S over the door. When Harry Potter visited Diagon Alley in his sixth year, he found Ollivander's boarded up, and Ollivander gone. Ollivander was kidnapped by Lord Voldemort. He was to explain why his wand and Harry Potter's wand couldn't battle. Under the Cruciatus Curse, he told Voldemort that it was because of the twin cores and all Voldemort needed to do was use another wand. Ollivander was tortured and held in the cellar of Malfoy Manor.
