A museum is a place where objects of historical, cultural or artistic
value are preserved and exhibited. Its purpose is to inform, educate and entertain the public. There are museums on every subject, but today we’re going to talk about a very special museum, The Warner Bros. Studio Tour London.
The museum is located in Leavesden, about 30 kilometres northwest
of London. It opened its doors in 2012 and offers visitors a behind- the-scenes look at the Harry Potter movie saga, adapted from J.K. Rowling’s novels. It is one of the most popular and profitable franchises in the history of cinema, which has left its mark on generations of fans.
We decided to choose this museum because we are great admirers of
the magical universe of Harry Potter. We think it is a museum that will appeal to all ages and tastes, as it offers an immersive and interactive experience. You can see emblematic scenery such as the Grande Salle, the Forbidden Forest or the Chemin de Traverse, authentic accessories such as chopsticks, brooms or horcruxes, original costumes worn by the actors, special effects that explain how magic was created on the screen, and much more.
We would recommend this museum to tourists who want to spend an
unforgettable and magical moment. It would take about three hours to complete the tour, but we could stay there as long as we wanted. The ticket price would be 47 pounds (about 55 euros) for an adult and 38 pounds (about 44 euros) for a child. Advance booking on the museum’s official website would be required as there would be no on- site sales. The museum would be open every day from 9am to 10pm, but timetables could vary depending on the season and special events.
Among the many objects exhibited in the museum, we chose to focus
on an artifact that fascinates us particularly: the model of the castle of Hogwarts. This is a 1/24 scale reproduction of the famous College of Witchcraft where the action of the films takes place. It is 15 metres high by 15 metres wide and was built by a team of 86 artists and artisans for seven months. It was used to make the castle’s wide shots in all films, using forced perspective and matte painting techniques.
We decided to select this artifact because we find that it
represents both the beauty and the complexity of Harry Potter’s world. It is an impressive work of art for its size, precision and realism. You can admire all the architectural details of the castle, such as the towers, bridges, windows or gargoyles. We can also see the changes made over the course of the films, such as the addition of the Quidditch site or the black lake. It is also a work that illustrates the colossal and meticulous work of the technical teams that brought J.K. Rowling’s dream to life.
