Piazza Santa Croce fountain, Ornate fountain near Palazzo Cocchi-Serristori in Florence, Italy
The fountain features a stone basin with decorative elements positioned in front of the Renaissance-era Palazzo Cocchi-Serristori within Piazza Santa Croce.
Giuseppe Manetti designed this 19th-century fountain as a recreation of an earlier Baroque structure that stood in the same location near the basilica.
The fountain serves as a central reference point during the annual Calcio Fiorentino matches, where teams gather before engaging in this traditional Florentine sport.
Located at the northern edge of Piazza Santa Croce, the fountain provides a meeting point for guided tours starting their exploration of the basilica.
The fountain's water flows continuously through carved stone spouts, creating a constant sound that mingles with the daily activities of the square.
