Fontana della Pigna, Renaissance fountain in Piazza Cavour, Rimini, Italy.
The Fontana della Pigna features a central pine cone sculpture mounted on a drum decorated with intricate Roman period bas-reliefs.
Giovanni da Carrara constructed the fountain in 1543, replacing an earlier structure, with the current pine cone sculpture added during renovations in 1807.
Leonardo da Vinci documented his appreciation of the fountain's water flow patterns during his visit as Cesare Borgia's military advisor.
Walking access from Rimini railway station requires following Corso D'Augusto after reaching Piazza Tre Martiri, with bus line 9 providing public transport options.
The fountain served as the primary drinking water source for the local population until the introduction of public water systems in 1912.
