Fontaine Maubuée, Protected fountain in Le Marais, Paris, France.
The Fontaine Maubuée stands at the intersection of Rue Saint-Martin and Rue de Venise, featuring a stone bas-relief with a decorative vase and aquatic plants.
Dating from 1392, the original fountain received its name from the poor quality of water supplied by the Belleville springs, with the current structure built in 1733.
The fountain appears in medieval literature through the works of French poet François Villon, who mentioned it in his compositions about Paris street life.
The monument remains at coordinates 48.8610291, 2.3512956, near the Centre Pompidou, making it accessible for visitors exploring the 4th arrondissement.
Architects Jean and Jean-Baptiste Beausire created the rocaille design, incorporating marine plants and reeds around a central vessel in the stone carving.
