Las Tres Gitanillas Fountain, Stone fountain in Málaga, Spain.

The fountain displays three female figures in traditional Andalusian dress with fans and ruffled skirts, crafted from stone sourced from El Torcal de Antequera.

Designed by Morilla and Ortega in 1959 and carved by Adrián Risueño Gallardo, the fountain stood in Plaza de la Constitución until its relocation in 2002.

The three stone figures represent gitana women, reflecting the deep connection between gypsy traditions and Andalusian heritage in southern Spanish society.

Located at Plaza del Poeta Manuel Alcántara near Málaga Centro-Alameda station, the fountain provides a central reference point for exploring the city center.

The fountain remained in municipal storage for nearly a decade due to complications with the Málaga Metro construction before finding its current location.
