Alnwick Castle and the surrounding parkland of Hulne Park offer a dramatic and unspoilt setting for filmmakers.
Most famously in recent years, Alnwick Castle featured as Hogwarts in the first two Harry Potter films.
Scenes filmed at the castle include the first Quidditch lesson in Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone and the crash landing of the flying Ford Anglia in Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets.
Alnwick Castle is a perfect day out for all Potter fans, young and old! Visit our What's On page to find out more about our Potter-themed activities, from Broomstick Training to magic shows featuring characters inspired by Harry and Hagrid.
