How to use the Witch Hut Finder
Witch huts generate in swamp biomes and are the only place witches spawn continuously. Use the nearest list to find several huts close together for a multi-hut witch farm.
- Type or paste your seed in the seed box (numbers and text seeds both work), then pick your edition and version.
- Witch huts are marked on the map automatically. Drag to pan, scroll or pinch to zoom, and hover an icon to see its coordinates.
- Click an icon to copy the coordinates or a ready-made /tp command, and tick "Completed" to keep track of the ones you have visited.
- Use the "Nearest" list in the sidebar to jump straight to the closest ones to spawn or to any X/Z you enter.
Where witch huts generate
On Java, witch huts share the 32×32-chunk grid (8-chunk separation) with temples and igloos, and the start must be in a swamp. Mangrove swamps do not get witch huts. Huts stand on spruce stilts above the water, with a cauldron, a crafting table, a flower pot, a witch and a black cat.
Because each grid region can place its hut near any corner, huts in neighbouring regions sometimes land close together. Two huts within reach of one AFK spot is a double hut, and four is a quad hut, which is extremely rare.
Building a witch farm
On Java, witches keep spawning inside the hut's bounding box (7×9 blocks, Y 64–71) as long as there are solid spawning spaces. Farms replace the hut with spawning floors inside that box, light or remove all other spawning spaces nearby, and drop the witches into a kill chamber. Drops include redstone, glowstone dust, sugar, gunpowder, glass bottles, spiders' eyes and sticks.
AFK within 128 blocks of the hut but at least 24 blocks away from the spawning floors. Pick the hut with the most swamp water underneath so you don't have to build the floors in mid-air.

Questions
What is a quad witch hut seed?
A seed where four witch huts generate within one 128-block radius, so a single farm collects from all four. They are extremely rare; zoom out and look for tight clusters.
Does the hut position matter for a farm?
Yes. On Java, witches only spawn inside the hut's bounding box (7×9 blocks, Y 64–71), so build the collection system around the marked coordinates.
Are witch huts exact on Bedrock?
Yes. The finder implements Bedrock's swamp hut placement, so pick Bedrock in the edition selector. Bedrock's witch spawning rules inside the hut differ from Java's.
Do mangrove swamps have witch huts?
No. Only regular swamp biomes can hold a witch hut.
What command finds a witch hut?
With cheats on, /locate structure minecraft:swamp_hut on Java. The map also shows Bedrock huts directly.
