Temporary Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom

The Temporary Defence Against the Dark Arts Classroom was used by Professor Quirrell between the years 1991-1992 while the third floor corridor was out of bounds. It has four pillars and in the middle a pedestal for the teacher. The classroom entrance is around the Transfiguration Courtyard.

In the 1991–1992 school year, the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher was Professor Quirinus Quirrell. He used a different classroom because the third floor corridor was forbidden. It was located on the first floor. The classroom smelled strongly of garlic, said to be protection against a vampire he'd met in Romania and feared was coming back to get him. They have covered the Curse of the Bogies and how to treat werewolf bites.
