The Fremont Troll is close to Gas Works Park under the Aurora Bridge. It’s a 6.5-ton sculpture that was crafted in 1990 by local artists. It’s weird, wonderful, and beloved by both Seattleites and visitors who want a taste of the city’s art scene.
Not only is the sculpture itself one of the best places to take pictures in Seattle, but you can make various poses around the troll, get behind it, or even lie down in front of it if you’re feeling adventurous.
I suggest heading down early to miss the bulk of the afternoon crowd. As it’s one of Seattle’s most popular monuments, you may be waiting a while to shoot your shot if you visit during peak hours.
