built solely because seven is a powerful number, this floor holds many of the rooms that don't quite have an academic purpose.

there's not much up here besides the ancient runes class, so this floor isn't commonly visited by the students unless in passing.

defence against the dark arts is a favoured subject, even here, and this is the floor that you can find the class on.

many of the surprise rooms seem to be found on this floor, where they are constantly changing and causing students to be careful when they open the door.

transfiguration, charms...all of the practical classes seem to have been put on this floor, crowding the corridor with many doors and classrooms.

if ever you need a good book, you can find the library here, as well as the hospital wing, better for when you need healing than a good read.

enter the school, leave the school and eat dinner with everyone else. that's only the beginning of what you can do here on the ground floor.
