Hogwarts Legacy: All Three Hogwarts Secrets Locations and Solutions

For each Hogwarts secret, you’ll have to follow a series of steps to unlock hidden rooms and discover their secrets. While you’ll typically find treasure chests to open, you’ll also encounter some miscellaneous items along the way that provide some context of the situation.

With that said, let’s get into the three secret puzzles and how to solve them!

Clock Tower Puzzle

The Clock Tower puzzle, in the South Wing’s Clock Tower Courtyard, requires you to pause the building’s large, swinging pendulum using either Glacius or Arresto Momentum. By doing this and aligning the pendulum’s center circle with the four symbols in the air, you’ll unlock four doors around the area, with each housing a treasure chest. There is one room per floor, starting from the bottom and working your way up the tower.

Key of Admittance Puzzle

The Key of Admittance puzzle has a few requirements before you can begin pursuing it. Most notably, you’ll need Alohomora level three. Upgrading this spell requires you to complete Gladwin Moon’s quest line of collecting Demiguise Moons.

Once you unlock this, fly up to the Headmaster’s Upper Study using your broom and collect the Key of Admittance item. Alternatively, if you’ve already completed The Polyjuice Plot, you’ll have already accessed this area before and can return to get the item.

From here, you’ll have to re-enter the statue room between the Upper Study and Trophy Room, where you’ll spot a door with an intricate lock system on the opposite side of the corridor. Open this door with the key to discover more treasure chests and a special secret at the top of the tower!

Viaduct Bridge Puzzle

For this final puzzle, located in the Viaduct Courtyard, you’ll find a bridge with four braziers and a locked entranceway in the ground. This entrance shows four unique symbols and numbers, which you’ll have to align on the four braziers. After doing this and lighting the fires with either Incendio or Confringo, this entrance will open, revealing a sewer with treasure for you to find.
