Gringotts Wizarding Bank will be open for visits

Good news! Warner Bros. Studio Tour London announced the launching of its biggest expansion to date.

Harry Potter fans, get ready for the set of Gringotts Wizarding Bank !

On 6th April, a permanent addition will be unveiled, allowing visitors to walk through the wizarding bank of Gringotts, the Lestrange vault, a gallery of goblins and so much more. 

The wizarding bank of Gringotts played an important role in the Harry Potter saga, as it is where some of the most iconic scenes took place: from Harry Potter first discovering Diagon Alley to the famous trio escaping on a Ukrainian Ironbelly dragon in their quest for a Horcrux.

Lined by towering marble pillars, the grand banking hall will be decorated with three magnificent crystal chandeliers and finished with real brass leaf. Inkwells, quills, ledgers and piles of Galleons, Sickles and Knuts will complete the goblin tellers’ desks as seen on screen. The Prop-making Department, led by Pierre Bohanna, created over 210,000 coins for the final two films alone.

Gringotts Wizarding Bank is famously run by goblins. Walking through the imposing marble columns, visitors will discover the costumes and prosthetics belonging to Bogrod, Griphook and many other goblin bankers.

Once through the banking hall of Gringotts, visitors will enter the depths of the Lestrange Vault used to store the treasures of Bellatrix Lestrange including the Sword of Gryffindor and Helga Hufflepuff’s Cup, one of Voldemort’s many Horcruxes. Here, visitors can try out a unique photo opportunity allowing them to step inside the Lestrange vault and surround themselves with treasure.

Officially opening on Saturday 6th April, the 16, 500sqft Gringotts Wizarding Bank expansion will be the Studio Tour’s biggest addition to date.
