With a workforce of nearly 10,000, the software giant’s campus — located just outside of Madison, Wis., in Verona, Wis. — is so mystical that it resembles something like a city out of a fantasy novel. In fact, one of its rooms was inspired by the Harry Potter saga.
Here are eight features of Epic’s grounds, as reported by Atlas Obscura.
1. A red treehouse serves as a conference room
2. Underground tunnels and skyways help connect buildings
3. A moat and a medieval drawbridge separate modern glass buildings
4. An auditorium located five stories underground that accommodates 11,000 visitors
5. A life-size Grand Central Station featuring walk-in train cars
6. An Indiana Jones themed hallway
7. A farm campus with a four-story barn, milk jugs, butter churns and tractors
8. Plenty of sculptures of seals and elephants, including wax figurines of the Blues Brothers
