Fountain of El Torico, Public fountain in Plaza Carlos Castel, Teruel, Spain

The fountain features a central column crowned by a small bronze bull statue rising above an octagonal stone basin with water spouts.

Dating from 1858, this fountain replaced earlier cisterns from 1375 that supplied water to the medieval residents of Teruel.

The bronze bull atop the column reflects the importance of these animals in Spanish traditions and gives the fountain its name.

Located in the main square of Teruel, the fountain serves as a central meeting point and reference for navigating through the city center.

The column of the fountain underwent reconstruction in 2022 after an incident, demonstrating the commitment to preserve this municipal symbol.
