    Quamelius Albathryn Grunfus is a mythical creature native to the Rhine Falls. Created by cultural mediator Beat Toniolo, it serves as a symbol of the power and beauty of the Rhine Falls. The Quamelius Albathryn Grunfus sculpture was unveiled in 2020 and is a popular photo opportunity for visitors.

    The story tells of a child who cannot come to terms with the disappearance of the salmon in the Rhine Falls and dreams of a mythical creature that could bring the salmon back. This story is also told in a children's book and a song, making the Rhine Falls an even more magical place.
