We are talking about a different breed of being. Dealings between wizards and goblins have been fraught for centuries ... There has been fault on both sides, I would never claim that wizards have been innocent. However, there is a belief among some goblins, and those at Gringotts are perhaps most prone to it, that wizards cannot be trusted in matters of gold and treasure, that they have no respect for goblin ownership." — Bill Weasley on the mindset of goblins [src] According to W.O.M.B.A.T., it is possible that goblins fear sunlight, which may explain why Humans guarded the outside doors of Gringotts.

Investigations continue into the break-in at Gringotts on 31 July, widely believed to be the work of Dark wizards or witches unknown. Gringotts goblins today insisted that nothing had been taken. The vault that was searched had in fact been emptied the same day. "But we're not telling you what was in there, so keep your noses out if you know what's good for you, " said a Gringotts spokes goblin this afternoon." — Daily Prophet article [src] It, at one point, stored the sword of Godric Gryffindor, unknown to the Lestranges that it was actually a fake. Death Eater Travers must have a vault in Gringotts, as he was holding a key while entering the bank when he encountered Hermione Granger disguised as Bellatrix Lestrange before she, Harry, and Ron robbed the bank. [17] In the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, the interior of the Australia House in London was used for the Gringotts grand entrance hall. For the second part of the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, a set was built at Leavesden as the scenes involving the dragon would have been impossible to film on location. The set was based on, but not an exact replica, of the Australia House interior (differences include the pattern of the marble floor, the design of the chandeliers, and the studio set has windows).

Oddly only one female goblin, a goblin jazz singer has ever appeared in any Harry Potter media; they seem to be the inverse of Veela, with one gender being more visible to the magical world. There seemed to be several jobs available at Gringotts for wizards, in addition to those positions held by goblins, though they were largely behind-the-scenes. Bill Weasley took a job as a Curse-Breaker, hunting treasure in Egypt after his graduation from Hogwarts. The job was described in a pamphlet available to Hogwarts students. [20] Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, Year 6, "THE DRAGON'S TREASURE" Achievement - Part 1, Side Quest "Adventures in Curse-Breaking" According to W.O.M.B.A.T tests, Gringotts may be the oldest building in Diagon Alley and the other shops grew up around it. Organised by Bloomsbury Publishing for the 2021 Harry Potter Book Night, [34] when the cast of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child read aloud Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Chapter 5 ( Diagon Alley) together, Kristina Peters, the actress portraying Delphini in the Hamburg production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, read the warning sign ( "Enter, stranger, but take heed [...]") from Gringotts Wizarding Bank. [35]

From Diagon Alley, a set of white stairs led up to a set of burnished bronze doors. The doors were flanked by a goblin in a uniform of scarlet and gold, though during the Second Wizarding War the goblin was replaced instead by two wizard guards with Probity Probes. This was the entrance to Gringotts, and it led into a small entrance hall and another set of doors. Engraved on these silver doors were the words:

If you look closely on the 422nd Quidditch World Cup Programme, you will see that Gringotts sponsors the 422nd Quidditch World Cup. Goblins were a highly intelligent race of small magical humanoid beings with long fingers and feet that coexisted with the wizarding world. Their diet consisted of meat, roots, and fungi. Goblins conversed in a language known as Gobbledegook, and were adept metalsmiths notable for their silverwork; they even minted coins for wizarding currency. Due to their skills with money and finances, they controlled the wizarding economy to a large extent and ran Gringotts Wizarding Bank. [4]

Harry Potter first ventured to Gringotts in 1991, when he learned that his late parents had left him a great deal of money in a vault. Never mess with goblins, Harry. Gringotts is the safest place in the world fer anything yeh want ter keep safe — 'cept maybe Hogwarts." — Rubeus Hagrid's opinion of Gringotts [src] Sealed by a special key consisting of five gemstones and guarded by a giant Fire crab known as the Vaults Guardian. The bank was created by the goblin Gringott [9] in 1474. [10] The creation of Gringotts was considered to be linked to the 14th Century Wizarding Economic Bubble, which happened the century before. [11] It was established not long after the Soap Blizzard of 1378, a volatile event which burst the economic bubble. [12]In the first film, Rubeus Hagrid referred to goblins as beasts, although they are classified as beings. However, he may simply have been speaking metaphorically.

Gringotts Wizarding Bank was located on the north side of Diagon Alley. It was the side closest to the Leaky Cauldron and, thus, closest to Charing Cross Road and Muggle London. The bank was located near Potage's Cauldron Shop, Flourish and Blotts, and Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour. [8] History [ ] While Gringotts was largely staffed by goblins, including Griphook, Bogrod, and Ragnok, it is known that the bank did employ humans: Gringotts actively advertised career employment to Hogwarts students at least for Curse-Breakers, and might likely also do so to other wizarding schools elsewhere. Bill Weasley worked as a Curse-Breaker for Gringotts in Egypt, retrieving artefacts from ancient Egyptian tombs and pyramids after his graduation from Hogwarts. Gringotts is next seen properly in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows when Harry, Ron, and Hermione decide to ‘steal’ a Horcrux of Voldemort from Bellatrix Lestrange’s vault. Her fear when she finds out that Hermione and the others had the Sword of Gryffindor is a giveaway to the possibility of finding something important there. So, Harry, Hermione, and Ron enlist the help of Griphook, and they go to Gringotts in disguise. Hermione disguises herself as Bellatrix and Ron as a Death Eater. Goblins have the power to do magic. However, in LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4, they only come with a key. The break-in of 1998 was committed by Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley. Harry, Ron, and Hermione were aided by a reluctant Griphook in exchange for Godric Gryffindor's sword. They broke into the vault of Bellatrix Lestrange, where one of Lord Voldemort's Horcruxes ( Helga Hufflepuff's cup) was hidden. They came to the conclusion that a break-in was necessary after Harry deduced the location of the Horcrux after the Skirmish at Malfoy Manor.

Once through the banking hall of Gringotts, enter the depths of the Lestrange Vault used to store the treasures of Bellatrix Lestrange including the Sword of Gryffindor and Helga Hufflepuff’s Cup, one of Voldemort’s many Horcruxes. During filming 38,000 pieces of rubberised treasure were created for the Lestrange vault including 7,014 Hufflepuff Cups.
