Fuente de las Escaleras, Fuenlabrada, Public fountain and monument in Fuenlabrada, Spain
The Fuente de las Escaleras features three independent stair-shaped elements with cascading water flowing through curtains onto a lower base point.
Mexican architect Fernando González Gortázar designed this municipal fountain in 1987 during Fuenlabrada's transformation from a small town into a modern city.
The fountain stands at the intersection of Calle Francia and Avenida de las Naciones, serving as a central gathering space for community celebrations.
Visitors can access the monument through a cobblestone pedestrian path that circles around green areas and water features within an elliptical island.
The fountain operates on a closed circuit system with electropumps moving water from collection tanks to upper levels through underwater hermetic lamp holders.
