Fuente de Cella, Artesian well and spring in Cella, Spain.

The Fuente de Cella features an elliptical shape with a larger diameter of 34.83 meters and a smaller diameter of 24.84 meters, surrounded by stone railings.

Built in the 12th century, the well underwent significant improvements between 1729 and 1731 under Captain Engineer Domingo Ferrari, following directives from the Audiencia de Aragón.

The spring functions as the source of the Jiloca River and supplies water through three main irrigation ditches to seven different municipalities in the region.

Visitors can observe the water channeling through a passage covered by a small shrine dedicated to Saint Clement, with the well reaching depths of 11.5 meters.

The fountain produces an extraordinary flow of approximately 3500 liters per second, making it one of the largest and deepest wells in Europe.
