Founded in 1017 by a slavic witch Marzanna in Giant Mountains in Poland, then known as the Kingdom of Poland.
Located in Giant Mountains in a enchanted valley cloaked by magic.
Due to the original plans intending to place the school entirely underground, some of the most exquisite chambers and halls are suited below ground level, such as The Lunar Archive.
Subjects in which students of this school excel are herbology, healing arts, divination and wandless magic (part of Spellcraft curriculum since third year).
There is no house division, students are only divided accordingly to their gender, therefore there are only two dormitories, one for girls and one for boys.
Known to possess one of the greatest magical archives in all of Europe - The Lunar Archive. It contains some of the oldest and most dangerous spellbooks and grimoires, and also many magical artifacts. The door to the Archives is enchanted to only open for everyone on full moon, otherwise you need a special talisman to open the door.
The Academy is often looked upon with suspicion by other European wizarding schools and governments as they put an eminent emphasis on teaching wandless magic in their Spellcraft classes (equivalent to British Charms). It is because Polish wizarding society has a long history of wizards and witches being kidnapped with their wands being snapped which very often rendered them defenceless.
Due to the above, the Academy is collaborating with Uagadou School of Magic since 2004. The professors exchange their knowledge of wandless magic and the Polish students have a chance to swap places with African students.
