Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry didn’t just appear out of thin air; it resulted from four ambitious wizards and witches. Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Salazar Slytherin brought their unique perspectives to the table, creating a school that still stands tall today. While they agreed to teach magic to young witches and wizards, things got... complicated. With war and whatnot, huh? We all know about the Battle of Hogwarts, don't we? And their legacy is spellbounding. Let's explore a bit more about the founders.

Godric Gryffindor: The Brave and Bold

Godric Gryffindor believed courage is non-negotiable. If you are the kind of person who’d face a troll head-on or stand up for your friends, you're welcome.
He also firmly believed that magical ability mattered more than your bloodline, which caused a bit of drama with his bestie Salazar Slytherin. Duh!!
And let’s not forget the legendary Sword of Gryffindor. Only a true Gryffindor could pull it from the hat, making it a symbol of bravery that’s still making headlines centuries later.
Helga Hufflepuff: The Kind and Fair

Helga Hufflepuff was basically Hogwarts’ heart. She didn’t care if you were pure-blood, half-blood, or Muggle-born, if you were willing to learn and put in the effort, she welcomed you.
Her belief in fairness and inclusivity made Hufflepuff House the most accepting corner of Hogwarts.
