Fountain of Moses

Local name: Fontana del Mosè

The monumental wall fountain was built in the 16th century at the request of Pope Sixtus V. It was intended to supply water to the upper districts of the city by partial use of the ancient aqueduct Alessandrino. It is surrounded by a group of sculptures, of which the powerful figure of Moses draws the most attention.
