"Point me!"
This article is about the corridor on the seventh floor leading to the Divination Stairwell. You may be looking for the seventh-floor corridor.

Hermione Granger: "I think it's this way."

Ron Weasley: "Can't be. That's south. Look, you can see a bit of the lake outside the window..."

— Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley looking for the North Tower^[src]

The Divination corridor was a passage on the seventh-floor^[1] of Hogwarts Castle, stretching from a landing where Cadogan's portrait hung to the Divination Stairwell in the North Tower.^[3] It contained several paintings, which Cadogan ran through while leading Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger to the stairwell. The corridor was unfamiliar to students not studying Divination due to their lack of need to travel to its area of the castle.^[2]

Behind the scenes[]

In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (video game), Cadogan instead hangs in the seventh-floor corridor.
In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (video game), the Divination Stairwell is instead accessible from the seventh-floor corridor.
