原标题：Beauxbatons Academy of Magic

Thought to be situated somewhere in the Pyrenees, visitors speak of the breath-taking beauty of a chateau surrounded by formal gardens and lawns created out of the mountainous landscape by magic. Beauxbatons Academy has a preponderance of French students, though Spanish,Portuguese,Dutch,Luxembourgians and Belgians also attend in large numbers (both Beauxbatons and Durmstrang have a larger studentship than Hogwarts). 

据说，布斯巴顿隐蔽于比利牛斯山脉之中。这座城堡被传统庭院与修剪得当的草坪所包围着，籍由魔法建造于群山之间。大部分在布斯巴顿就读的学生是法国人，但也有大量来自西班牙、葡萄牙、荷兰、卢森堡与比利时的学生。（布斯巴顿与德姆斯特朗的学生数量都远远超过霍格沃茨）

It is said that the stunning castle and grounds of this prestigious school were part-funded by alchemist gold, for Nicolas and Perenelle Flamel met at Beauxbatons in their youth, and a magnificent fountain in the middle of the school’s park, believed to have healing and beautifying properties, is named for them.

有传言称，极富盛名的布斯巴顿建造那美得惊人的城堡与置购土地的费用有一部分源自炼金术士们。尼可•勒梅与妻子佩雷纳尔正是在学生时代邂逅于布斯巴顿，一座以他们命名的瑰丽喷泉位于学校花园的正中——人们相信它的泉水拥有治愈与养颜的能力。

Beauxbatons has always enjoyed a cordial relationship with Hogwarts, though there has been a healthy rivalry in international competitions such as the Triwizard Tournament, in which Beauxbatons has sixty-two wins to Hogwarts’ sixty-three.

尽管在诸如三强争霸赛这样的国际赛事中互为竞争对手，布斯巴顿一直与霍格沃茨保持着良好的关系。在此项比赛中，布斯巴顿与霍格沃茨有着六十二对六十三的优秀记录。

Apart from the Flamels, famous ex-students of Beauxbatons include Vincent Duc de Trefle-Picques, who escaped the Terror by casting a concealment charm on his neck and pretending that his head had already been cut off; Luc Millefeuille, the infamous pastry-maker and Muggle-poisoner, and Fleur Delacour, who fought in the world-famous Battle of Hogwarts and was awarded medals of bravery from both the French and British Ministries of Magic. Headmistress Olympe Maxime is (in spite of her protestations to the contrary) half-giantess; brilliant, elegant and undeniably awe-inspiring.

除去勒梅夫妇，布斯巴顿的杰出校友还有——

文森特·德·泰福勒-皮克公爵，他为了躲避恐怖统治时期，在自己颈部施了隐藏魔咒装作自己已经被砍头；

吕克·米勒法利，臭名昭著的糕点师和麻瓜毒害者；

芙蓉·德拉库尔，参与了举世闻名的霍格沃茨战役，并凭借自己在战时的勇敢赢得了法国和英国魔法部颁发的勋章；

奥利姆·马克西姆，布斯巴顿校长，一位杰出、优雅且令人敬畏的混血巨人（尽管她为驳斥此说法做出了严正的声明）。
