A beautiful river maiden who lives on the eponymous rock on the Rhine. She lures sailors to their doom with her enchanting voice. Immortalized in Heine's poem. In ancient times, she was seen as the same as the river goddess, but the menacing rocks and the heavy currents of the Rhine turned her into a witch that drags people below the waters. There are many legends concerning Lorelei. In some, she is a goddess, in others, she is a water witch.
