Fontana delle cinque cannelle, Stone fountain in Fossacesia, Italy.
The Fontana delle cinque cannelle features five water spouts arranged in a symmetrical pattern within a rectangular stone structure against a wall.
Built in 1888, the fountain marked a period of urban development in Fossacesia when the town upgraded its water distribution infrastructure.
The fountain functions as a central meeting point where residents gather throughout the day to collect water and exchange local news.
Located in the town center of Fossacesia, the fountain maintains its original purpose by providing fresh water to residents and visitors.
Each of the five spouts delivers water through carved stone channels that have remained functional for over 130 years.
