This is the last Hogwarts castle set ever made by LEGO®. As far as the castle sets go, this one is rather small, though the word "small" is relative. There are still plenty of rooms and secrets to be found in this playset!
Included are two caves under each of the tall towers, Professor Lupin's office, the Astronomy tower, the Room of Requirement, a room with the Mirror of Erised, and the Divination room. There is also a walkway that explodes, throwing off anyone who is on it when it explodes.

Interestingly, Professor Sprout is included with this set. She is the Herbology teacher and spends much of her time in the school's greenhouses. There are no greenhouses included with this set, but there was one included with Hogwarts Castle (3rd Edition). Given that Professor Sprout was not included with that set it seems like LEGO® tried to make up for that omission by including her with this one. This is the only set that includes a Professor Sprout minifig.
This portion of Hogwarts can be connected to the other parts pretty easily. Or, if you prefer, it can be left separate, the choice is yours.
