Malfoy Manor

The Malfoy Manor was the home of the pure-blood Malfoy family, located in Wiltshire, England. It was mainly used as the base of operations for Voldemort and the Death Eaters during the Second Wizarding War.

Canon Timeline
Along with the arrests of the Malfoys in June 1998, the familial elves were captured and later freed from their masters. Mippy was the only elf who stayed at the Manor as a free elf and continued working for her former mistress Narcissa Malfoy.

Due to its owner Lucius Malfoy’s life imprisonment in Azkaban, the only residents in the Manor were Draco and Narcissa Malfoy and Mippy, before Draco married Hermione Granger.

AU Timeline
Before the Battle of Hogwarts, the Manor was mainly used as the base of operations for Voldemort and residence of Death Eaters, much to the discomfort and dismay of the Malfoys. After Voldemort won, he occupied the Hogwarts Castle and used it as his new base. During the Auction, Hermione was sold to Antonin Dolohov. In order to save her from Dolohov, Draco made a deal with Dolohov and signed a contract that gave up his inheritance, including the Manor. Later, Hermione was brought to the Manor by Mippy and had become a resident of the Manor along with the Malfoys and the elves.

On 26 July 1998, the Malfoys performed a Virginity Charm ritual on Hermione in order to remove her sign of virginity and to deceive the medical examiners that were coming on the same day. As a result, Hermione had become a child and a blood heir of Lucius. Later that day, Lucius confirmed with the Gringotts about Hermione’s adoption and requested to replace the Male Line Proviso and Pure-Blood Heir Clause with an Eldest Progeny Rider, causing the deal between Draco and Dolohov annulled.

The Manor was invaded by the resistance, the True Order on 4 May 1999. In the same month, the murder of its owner, Lucius Malfoy, caused the Manor went into the Familial/Blood Protection Procedures and only allowed familial persons to get through its Protection Wards. Upon Lucius’ death, Hermione became the new owner of Malfoy holdings.

Library
The Malfoy library was believed to be the largest library in the Wizarding England. It housed not only magical books but also Muggle literatures, such as Brontë. The library was the place where Hermione spent most of her time in AU, researching for the tattoo or practising Occlumency.

Hermione’s Suite
Hermione’s personal suite was a room that Draco had prepared for her in case Voldemort won the war and he had to save her from the Auction. It was located next to Draco’s personal suite and the two rooms were connected by a hidden panel in the wall.

The room was decorated with cream walls lined with gold, deep carpets. It had a sitting area with two deep wingback chairs across from the door with a fireplace, a four-poster bed with cream canopy curtains with flecks of gold and bookshelves were lining the wall to the right side of the room.

In the canon universe, the room had no direct appearance but was mentioned for several times. Is had not been used since created.

In the alternative universe, the room was burned down by Hermione’s wandless magic in June 1998, because of Draco’s attack, although a manipulative action for deceiving Voldemort, on her. All books were destroyed excepts Jane Eyre. The room was later repaired and replaced with new decorations that echoed Gryffindor’s common room, such as red bed curtains and mahogany armchairs.

Lucius’ Study
Lucius’ study was the personal library of Lucius Malfoy, the owner and the lord of the Manor. The family archive room was hidden behind a bookshelf inside the room. It appeared only in the alternative universe, when Hermione was a resident of the Manor. In AU April 1999, Hermione accidentally found out the Pensieve and Lucius’ stored memories of the last Horcrux, leading to her and Draco’s decision to destroy the Horcrux together.

Draco’s Potion Lab
Draco owned a personal potion laboratory in the Manor’s dungeons. In November 1999, Draco broke down the Marcus Flint potion and made an antidote for Hermione when she was dosed with the potion. In AU September 1998, Hermione broke down the potion for Draco instead. It was also in this lab where Hermione and Draco successfully made the tattoo potion and its antidote in AU April 1999.

The Conservatory
In her third year, Narcissa beat Lucius in Exploding Snap and made the latter promised her a personal room at the Manor. Lucius built the Conservatory for her instead. Narcissa discovered the Conservatory when she visited the Manor with her family, but Lucius’ feelings for her and the fear of losing her sister Bellatrix, who was then Lucius’ fiancée scared her off.

The Dungeons
During the Second Wizarding War, Luna Lovegood had been kept as a captive in the dungeons of the Manor. Draco occasionally came down to the dungeons to talk or play with Luna during her capture.
