Marauder's Map was a map created by the Marauders, James Potter, Peter Pettigrew, Sirius Black, and Remus Lupin. It was often used by Fred and George Weasley so they could better plan their pranks throughout the school. They later gave it to Harry so he could sneak out of the castle and visit Hogsmeade without anybody noticing.
