Fontana del Carciofo, Marble fountain in Piazza Trieste e Trento, Italy.

The Artichoke Fountain is a marble monument on Piazza Trieste e Trento featuring two circular basins and a sculpture at the top. The white stone carving at the peak resembles an artichoke form, while decorated vase pairs line the sides of the structure.

In 1955 the city planned to move the Monteoliveto fountain, depicting a Spanish king, to Piazza Trieste e Trento, but the Consiglio Superiore delle Belle Arti rejected the idea. Mayor Achille Lauro then donated a new fountain, designed by engineers Carlo Comite, Mario Massari and Luigi Fedele, inaugurated on the evening of 29 April 1956.

The fountain's nickname comes from the flower-corolla sculpture on top, whose shape resembles an artichoke. It is tied to the city's football club: Achille Lauro, who commissioned it, was also a former president of SSC Napoli, and fans celebrating the team have sometimes stormed the monument, damaging its iron railing and the fountain itself.

The fountain sits in a busy plaza with neighboring cafes and is easy to reach during daylight hours. The monument has no restricted access and can be viewed at any time.

The fountain underwent major restoration in 2015 to preserve its original appearance and functioning water system. The work kept the fine details of the marble craftsmanship and the working water mechanism intact.
