There are 200 gold bricks to be found and collected in this Lego game. When you have found them all you can gain build a stud fountain, upstairs in the Leaky Cauldron. For your benefit, I have compiled a complete list of where to find all the bricks. If you are having any trouble finding the locations of these bricks, you can use a map of the HUB, found here.
Many of the gold bricks can be found by achieving certain things throughout the game and will not require you to go looking for them. The list below shows you a breakdown of where the bricks are found.
- 24 bricks are given for completing each of the levels within the game in story mode.
- 24 bricks are given for achieving true wizard in each of the levels.
- 24 bricks are given for completing the house crest for each of the levels.
- 60 bricks are given to you for each of the students in peril that you find. (24 in levels, 36 around Hogwarts).
- 16 bricks can be bought from Eyelops Owl Emporium in Diagon Alley.
- 14 bricks are given to you for completing lessons in story mode.
- 1 brick is given for completing the bonus level.
- 37 bricks can be found while free-roaming around Hogwarts.

Swim around, collecting all the studs as they appear, and you will find the gold brick when you pick up the last stud.

There are five yellow books that need to be returned to their shelves. Put them all back to earn the brick.

- On the left side of the room, just near the owl stand, you will see a yellow book lying on the floor, in front of the shelf.
- Fix the animal run near the middle of the room, then send a pet through to knock the book down.

Thanks so much!
The “Owl Emporium” is in KNOCKTURN ALLEY, not Diagon Alley.
Gold brick no. 30 … neither the trolley nor the broom is there … any help?
it is actually borgin and burkes in knockturn alley same place as you build the bonus level
How do u get to the bonus level?
I completed the years but I can’t get to the bonus level?!
The bonus level can be found inside Borgin & Burkes, I believe. You will find this shop in Knockturn Alley.
Any clue on where it is?????????
gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
I’m sure I should have 200 now, but I am still on 199 🙁 I’ve fully completed all the levels, including the bonus level (twice, to be sure). Then I revisited every location in your list, with the gold brick detector on, and checked the ghost and the physical location of the brick. Does anyone have any idea where I could be missing one, or do you think it’s glitched? I’ll be gutted if it has, I’m a real completionist, but can’t really handle the idea of doing it all again!
you sure you got all the student in perils? that made it 200 for me…
I can’t find the gold brick under the stairs of DADA classroom in Freeplay. Now i’m considering on doing the level and the lesson of DADA again, because even with gold brick detector on it says there isn’t any gold bricks left there, but the ghost in the classroom says I’m missing one. Maybe Kate N has same brick missing?
As I said to Kate N, if you didn’t get all the student in perils, that might be the issue.
I finished and got all of the bricks, went upstairs, WL everything together, and nothing happened! I cast all of the spells on it, but its just a plain gold castle! Anyone know if its just a glitch or is there more I need to do?
A gold castle spews unlimited amount of $ COOL BUT WHAT’S THE PURPOSE after defeting the gam
Wow thats wonderful and so helpful post
I somehow found 201 while completing with bf. We built the golden Hogwarts Caslte And then we hit the Qudditch Field to find an extra one 😀
