Fountain of the Four Dolphins, Fountain and classified historical monument in Aix-en-Provence, France

The Fontaine des Quatre-Dauphins is a Baroque marble fountain in the Mazarin quarter of Aix-en-Provence, France. Four carved marble dolphins rise from a round basin of Sainte-Baume stone to support a tall, slender obelisk topped with a decorative finial.

Sculptor Jean-Claude Rambot made the fountain in 1667, at the same time the Mazarin quarter was being laid out in a grid to expand the city southward. The project was backed by Michel Mazarin, brother of Cardinal Jules Mazarin, and followed planning ideas brought from Italy.

The square and the fountain share the name of the four dolphins carved by Jean-Claude Rambot, whose mouths pour water into the basin. The quarter around it, named for Archbishop Michel Mazarin, was from the late 17th century the address of wealthy citizens and members of the local parliament. Chestnut trees shade the corners of the square, and the Saint-Jean-de-Malte church is visible at the end of one street.

The fountain stands on a small square in the Mazarin quarter and is easy to reach on foot from the Cours Mirabeau in just a few minutes. Morning light or late afternoon sun brings out the texture of the stone and the details of the dolphins most clearly.

The obelisk's finial was changed over time from a gilded fleur-de-lys to a Maltese cross and finally to a pine cone, carved after World War II by sculptor Raymond Servian (1903–1953). The fountain was restored in 2015, when the dolphins were micro-polished and the obelisk and water system renewed; surveillance cameras were added in 2018 after repeated damage.
