THE FOUNTAINS
Les Fontaines, officially numbering 40 in Pernes-les-Fontaines.
Although Les Fontaines was only added to the town's name in 1936, the oldest fountains date back to the 15th century. Officially numbering 41, they actually number around a hundred, if you count those in private gardens! Pansy, mossy, bearing mascarons or pine cones, they multiplied during the second half of the 18th century. The Cormorant fountain, the most famous, is a listed historic monument and bears the town's coat of arms. A signposted fountain tour is available as you stroll through the town.
