The History of Magic class is probably the most boring class for Hogwarts students, learning about Goblin rebellions and when certain charms and spells were invented and about famous witches and wizards. It is taught be the only spectral professor at Hogwarts, Professor Binns. The History of Magic classroom is usually darkened and lit by faint torch light so students can actually see Professor Binns in his faithful armchair where he teaches class. Desks are set in stadium style on three tiers, the highest being closest to the door where students enter History of Magic. Professor Binns on the other hand floats through the chalkboard from the room adjacent to the classroom which is his office.
