The Order is an organisation founded by Albus Dumbledore to counter Voldemort and his followers, the Death Eaters.

Its goal was the defeat of Voldemort during the first war (before the Harry Potter books); it was disbanded upon Voldemort’s disappearance. This was a blessing that could have not come too soon for the Order, which had suffered heavily. When Voldemort returned to power in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, the Order was reformed within the hour by an astute Dumbledore, who sent Sirius Black in dog form to alert key members such as Arabella Figg, Mundungus Fletcher, and Remus Lupin to the new threat.

Upon its reconstitution, the Order set up headquarters at Number Twelve, Grimmauld Place, London—Sirius Black’s family home. Dumbledore was the Secret-Keeper for the Order of the Phoenix, meaning that the Order’s headquarters at Grimmauld Place could only be revealed to others by Dumbledore.
