Fontaine Delille, 19th century fountain in Place Delille, Clermont-Ferrand, France.

Fontaine Delille stands on the central island of Place Delille in Clermont-Ferrand. Its wide, pale stone basin is ringed by a low wall, and a tiered pedestal in the middle carries a round upper bowl below a small finial. Dark bronze figures with fish or dolphin tails sit on the pedestal and around the rim, each spouting a thin arc of water; larger dark statues crown the column.

Construction finished in 1875 and connected three elevated sources to feed an underground brick reservoir beneath the square. This system originally supplied water to the Carmes cemetery beyond the fountain.

The French government designated the fountain as a protected historical monument in 2007, recognizing its architectural and technical importance to Clermont-Ferrand.

The fountain stands on the central island of Place Delille, so it is seen from the surrounding traffic lanes rather than approached directly; cross at the marked pedestrian crossings. The basin and sculptures are best examined on foot from the square's pavement, and the monument is listed, so the stone and bronzes should not be touched.

Beneath the fountain lies a vaulted brick chamber supported by four thick central pillars that hold up the entire structure above. This hidden underground architecture was essential for storing and managing the water supply.
