Fontana della Bollente

The Fontana della Bollente features a marble pavilion housing a natural spring that releases sulfurous water at 75 degrees Celsius throughout the day.

Built in 1870 by architect Giovanni Ceruti, this fountain continues the thermal tradition of Acqui Terme dating back to Roman times when the city was called Aquae Statiellae.

Local residents gather at the fountain every morning to collect the mineral-rich water, maintaining a centuries-old tradition of using it for drinking and therapeutic purposes.

Visitors can freely access the fountain in the town center and fill their bottles with the natural thermal water, which flows continuously from the spring.

The water emerges from underground at such high temperatures that during winter months, the steam rising from the fountain creates a natural heating effect in the square.
