Hogsmeade is the only entirely wizarding village in Britain. According to tradition it was founded over a thousand years ago, around the same time as Hogwarts, by Hengist of Woodcroft as he was fleeing persecution by Muggles . It's a picturesque little village of thatched cottages and shops, with enchanted candles hanging in the trees during the holidays.
As Hogsmeade is located just down the road from Hogwarts, the school and the village have always shared a special relationship. On select Saturdays throughout the school year the village is filled with Hogwarts students, who are allowed to visit beginning in their third year; some of the Hogwarts teachers, including Hagrid and Dumbledore, visit more frequently. The railway station that serves the village is actually on the other side of Hogwarts, and this is where the Hogwarts Express drops students off at the beginning of each school year.
