LEGO set 4709, Hogwarts Castle, depicts Hogwarts Castle in the Harry Potter theme. Released in 2001, it contains 696 pieces and includes 9 minifigures covering students, teachers and other figures connected with the wizarding school setting.

Hogwarts Castle belongs to the early LEGO Harry Potter range and focuses on the main school setting for Harry, Ron and Hermione. The model presents Hogwarts as a playable castle layout, intended to suggest the magical school environment rather than reproduce the full building in architectural detail.

The build uses 696 pieces and relies on the combination of castle structure and character selection. The 9 minifigures are Harry Potter, Professor Severus Snape, Peeves, Ron Weasley, Rubeus Hagrid, Albus Dumbledore, Draco Malfoy, Hogwarts Knight Statue and Hermione Granger. Rebrickable’s descriptions note house sweaters, capes, robes and Snape’s glow in the dark head.

This set suits Harry Potter collectors, display of early theme releases and play scenes set inside Hogwarts. Within the theme, it can be placed as an initial LEGO interpretation of the castle, notable for bringing together pupils, staff, Hagrid, Peeves and a knight statue in a single Hogwarts focused model.
