This Ottoman-style wooden fountain is a recognized national monument and a historic landmark. While the original structure was established in the 15th century, the current fountain dates back to a design from 1753 and a subsequent reconstruction in 1891. It features a unique kiosk-style architectural design, incorporating elements of neoclassical architecture.
The fountain serves as a functional source of fresh, potable water. It is a central social hub located in an area frequently referred to as Pigeon Square due to the large number of birds that gather there. A local legend is associated with the site, suggesting that those who drink from the fountain will eventually return to the city.
As a symbol of multicultural spirit and history, the structure is one of the most recognizable monuments in the historic market district. The fountain is accessible to the public as a communal drinking source.
