Rowena Ravenclaw

The Hogwarts house Ravenclaw was, as mentioned above, founded by a witch known as Rowena Ravenclaw. According to the Sorting Hat, Rowena was born in the lap of the mountains, which most likely corresponds to Scotland. She was born around the year 993. Rowena was known for her intelligence, originality, and creativity. Rowena had at least one daughter, Helena, who later became the ghost of Ravenclaw house, known as the Grey Lady. Rowena died in the 11th century from an unspecified illness. It is rumored that she died of grief due to the escape of her daughter Helena along with her Diadem. During her lifetime, Rowena was the best friend of Helga Hufflepuff, the founder of Hogwarts house Hufflepuff. According to legend, Rowena gave the name to the school Hogwarts because she dreamed of a place for the school, which was led to by a warty hog (English warty hog).

Ravenclaw Traits

Since the founder of the house was Rowena, who was proud of her high intellect, creativity, and originality, these are the exact qualities she sought in her students. An interesting fact is that Hermione Granger fits perfectly into this group of students, though she ultimately ended up in Gryffindor. The characteristic of Ravenclaw students is not only their intelligence but also their desire to achieve academic success and forge their own path. Ravenclaw students are known for their interest in the world around them, and they are also very logically thinking and rational wizards.

Ravenclaw Characters

Although the Hogwarts house Ravenclaw is not as well-known as, for example, Gryffindor or Slytherin, it has also had many famous and talented wizards. It should be noted that none of the students from Ravenclaw ever fell into dark magic and became one of Lord Voldemort's Death Eaters. Among the most famous Ravenclaw students are Harry's friend Luna Lovegood, Harry's first love Cho Chang, Penelope Clearwater (Percy Weasley's girlfriend), or Roger Davies, the captain of Ravenclaw's Quidditch team. Other well-known Ravenclaw characters include Gilderoy Lockhart, Harry's Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher in the second year, Sybill Trelawney, the Divination teacher, Xenophilius Lovegood, Luna Lovegood's father, and Professor Flitwick, who was also the head of Ravenclaw house. A notable student was also the beloved Hogwarts ghost The Grey Lady, who was killed by a basilisk on the orders of Lord Voldemort, then still Tom Riddle.

Ravenclaw Crest

There is considerable confusion and misunderstandings about the Ravenclaw crest, which are quite understandable. Ravenclaw is indeed Ravenclaw in the English original, translated literally as "raven's claw" and moreover, many crests depict a raven. However, the official animal of Ravenclaw and thus the symbol of the Ravenclaw crest is the eagle. The eagle is the main animal for what it represents - intelligence, wit, and creativity in hunting. The house Ravenclaw is named after its founder Rowena Ravenclaw (who had nothing to do with the raven).
