I don't know if it's true, but I've heard a rumor about the name of the Durmstrang school. In the Middle Ages there was a german concept (I don't know too much about it) called Sturm und Drang. If you look 'closer' at the word, you will see DurmStrang. Interesting, isn't it?
I'm looking for more information about that concept... maybe it has something to do with wizardry :onair:



And something very strange that appears in the books. Everybody probably thinks Moaning Myrtle's Bathroom is on the first floor. At least that's what the second books says. However, in the fourth book, when Harry goes to the prefects' bathroom, the author says something like 'Moaning Myrtle was 3 floors higher than usual. And, as we all know, Cedric told Harry the Prefects' Bathroom is on the 5th floor. This gives us a very interesting lesson.
1 + 3 = 5

I still can't find anything on that concept. I'm starting to wonder if "Sturm und Drang" really exists :lol:

I think Strum is just searched it on google and found a logo which led to a school site. Not sure about Drang though.
