Gringott was a celebrated goblin who founded Gringotts Wizarding Bank. For the Bank's founding and presumable management, Gringott was featured on a Chocolate Frog Card.

Behind the scenes[]

  • Gringott's Chocolate Frog Card does not give out his dates. However, since it is known that Gringotts Bank was already established by 1743,[1] we can assume that he lived sometime in or prior to the 18th century.

Notes and references[]

  1. According to Wonderbook: Book of Spells, Gideon Flatworthy, the leader of the extremist anti-Muggle group The Accionites (who died in 1743), refused to do "anything as mundane and energetic as visit Gringotts Bank".
