Who was the first headmaster of Hogwart’s? You might wonder why I’m asking this question. You see, one of the statues inside Hogwart’s Castle at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter park is a male figure pointing. Almost universally (nice pun, huh?), the statue is cited as the first headmaster of Hogwart’s….but who is the first headmaster?
The statue is clearly male and one of the four co-founders of Hogwart’s must have been the first headmaster (Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin). The “male” statue eliminates Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. If I were betting on which of the two males was the first headmaster, I’d go with Godric Gryffindor.
What are your thoughts? Anyone know the actual answer? If I read it or saw it, I’ve forgotten.
