Fontana della Sellaria, Baroque fountain in Naples, Italy
The Fontana della Sellaria stands in Piazzetta del Grande Archivio, featuring carved stone elements and water spouts that create flowing patterns.
The fountain was constructed in 1649 under the direction of Íñigo Vélez de Guevara following the suppression of the Neapolitan Republic.
The fountain represents the architectural expertise of Onofrio Antonio Gisolfi, who incorporated Baroque design principles into the public water source.
Visitors can reach the fountain by taking the metro to Università station and walking through the nearby streets of central Naples.
The water feature marks the location where citizens gathered during the 17th century political uprising against Spanish rule.
