Gargoyles are carved stone creatures designed as architectural water spouts on buildings, most famously seen on medieval Gothic cathedrals.

Key Characteristics

Function: They channel rainwater away from building walls to prevent erosion.
Appearance: They usually look like grotesque monsters, animals, or mythical beasts.
Symbolism: In folklore, they were believed to frighten away evil spirits and protect the church.
Grotesques: If a creature does not spout water and is purely decorative, it is technically called a grotesque, not a gargoyle.
