The Octagon Tower was one of the many towers of Hogwarts Castle. It is located to the left of the Viaduct Entrance and is connected to the Stone Bridge.^[1]. The Potions Classroom is located at the bottom of the tower^[2] and a hall on the first floor leads to the Stone Bridge.^[3].

The Potions Classroom is where Potion classes are taught. The classroom used to be squared-sized, very large, with large tables and windows^[4]. From 1995-onwards, the classroom was of an oval shape and relatively smaller, with small work tables^[5]. In 1996, the classroom was extended, adding space for more work tables^[6].
