Durmstrang was founded over seven hundred years ago. In the centuries since, it has developed a reputation for an intolerance of Muggle-borns and an emphasis on the Dark Arts. It is Unplottable and hidden from Muggles and wizards from rival institutions, but Durmstrang is thought to be in Northeastern Europe. The Durmstrang castle has only four floors and is generally cool and dark. The fires are only lit when needed for magic, so students wear warm uniforms: deep red robes covered by thick fur capes.
