Trapezoidal fountain with stone masks from which spring water gushes

It is undoubtedly the most singular monument of L'Aquila. Commissioned in 1272 by the governor Lucchesino to the architect Tancredi da Pentina, it is in the form of a vast trapezium surrounded on three sides by walls adorned with stone masks from which spring water gushes. Legend has it that these masks represent, symbolically at least, the 99 lords who presided over the founding of L'Aquila.

Balade dans la ville
Après une descente à travers des ruelles encombrées d échafaudages et de débris ,nous découvrons ce rectangle ouvert sur un côté compose de 3 murs en pierre avec ces têtes régulièrement disposees qui servent de fontaine.
Vraiment original à ne pas manquer.
