Etymology

Illustration of a gargoyle

Gargoyles are mythological creatures based on the stone statues of the same name originally created to let rainwater flow down in a certain way to avoid eroding the mortar of the masonry walls.

Over the time, legends were created about the gargoyles being the guardians of the buildings they lived in, protecting them from evil intent.
