Malfoy Manor

     Located in southwestern England in Wiltshire, the Malfoy Mansion is a “handsome manor house” with extensive grounds. Draco Malfoy grew up here with his parents, Lucius and Narcissa, and their house-elf Dobby. Dobby was freed in 1993, and we know of no other family members or house-elves who have stayed here.

     At some point during his 1996-1997 ascent to power, Voldemort decided to begin using the Malfoy Mansion as a base for Death Eaters. He wasn’t around much himself, but a number of Death Eaters stayed there and prisoners were kept in the cellar under the drawing room.
