Reviews from visitors:
Really nice fountain that greets travellers as they enter the old town, nice cool refreshing water is a welcome addition on a hot summers day, be careful though with the water on the marble floors as it can also get quite slippery if you spill any, can also get quite crowded with all the tourists around.
Cold water on the hot day. Beautiful and amazing.
Great part of Dubrovnik's hitory. Want to know more? Ask me...
Great fountain with drinking water
The fountain was designed by Onofrio della Cava from Naples, who also designed another small fountain at the other end of Placa. The fountains were built for public use on the occasion of the completion of the City water supply in 1438, when the spring water was brought from Rijeka Dubrovačka, situated 12 kilometres away.
The old water supply is today connected with the new waterworks system. The cupola of the monumental Onofrios Fountain was damaged in the earthquake of 1667, and later reconstructions failed to restore its original form.
