Drinking fountain

The Fountain, located in Piazza Castello, was built in front of the house of Princess Beatrice del Carretto in the seventeenth century at her request.  In Baroque style, the central view is impressive: the water flows out of the face of a marble lion and over a stone font. In the lower part, engraved petals can be admired, while the front of the fountain is made more articulate by a hexagonal sandstone drinking trough.
