Fuente de Cella

The Fuente de Cella is a spring with an elliptical basin fed by underground water sources in northeastern Spain. Water flows continuously from below the ground and is channeled through a covered passage beneath a small shrine.

The well was constructed in the 12th century and later underwent major reconstruction between 1729 and 1731. These works were directed by a royal engineer and aimed to improve water distribution to surrounding settlements.

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.

The spring is accessible year-round and can be visited easily from the village center. Stone walls surround the basin, making it safe to view the water from multiple angles.

Water flows continuously from the ground in remarkable quantities and feeds multiple irrigation channels. This consistent supply has allowed the well to serve seven nearby settlements for hundreds of years.
