According to legend, there was once a beautiful young
maiden, named Lorelei, who threw herself headlong into the river
in despair over a lover. Upon her death she was transformed into
a siren and could from that time on be heard singing on a rock
along the Rhine River, near St. Goar. Her hypnotic music lured
sailors to their death. The legend is based on an echoing rock
with that name near Sankt Goarshausen, Germany.
She is 19 1/2 inches long.
