History

Vault 713

The entrance to the vault

The Philosopher's Stone was protected in this vault until Rubeus Hagrid removed it on the 31st of July in 1991 on Albus Dumbledore's orders to be placed under more effective protection at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Quirinus Quirrell attempted to break into this vault while it housed the Philosopher's Stone later the same day as Harry Potter and Hagrid's visit under the direction of Lord Voldemort. It is unknown who is the owner of the vault or what, if anything, the vault was used for after it guarded the Philosopher's Stone.[1]

Security

According to the goblin Griphook, if anyone but a Gringotts goblin tried to open Vault 713, they'd be sucked through the door and trapped inside the vault until the vault is opened (which Gringotts Goblins do once every ten years).

Behind the scenes

  • It is unknown whom exactly the Vault belongs to but it could be assumed that it belongs to either Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore or Nicolas Flamel.
  • The vault's number can be separated to have 7 and 13, the two of the most well known lucky (7) and unlucky (13) numbers.
  • A possible reason J.K. Rowling picked the number 713 is that, when written backwards, that is, 317, and separated with a forward slash, you get the date 31/7, or the date Harry Potter, Rubeus Hagrid and Griphook visited Vault 713 to remove the Philosopher's Stone.
