Fuente del Rey

The Fuente del Rey features three terraced basins with curved contours and 139 water spouts arranged along its elongated perimeter.

Construction of this monumental fountain began in the 16th century and underwent several transformations before its completion by architect Remigio del Mármol in 1803.

The central sculpture depicts Neptune and Amphitrite riding a horse-drawn chariot, while the first basin displays a neoclassical lion created by sculptor Álvarez Cubero.

Located at Calle del Río 14800, the fountain remains accessible throughout the year and provides information services through the local tourism office.

Each of the 139 water spouts features stone masks with different faces, creating a collection of mysterious expressions throughout the structure.
