The fountain features a powerful water jet that soars 140 meters into the air, making it one of the tallest fountains in the world. It was inaugurated in 1891 and has since become a prominent landmark representing the city. Situated on Quai Gustave-Ador, the fountain is visible from many parts of the city and offers scenic views of Lake Geneva and the Alps. The structure is illuminated at night, enhancing its dramatic presence and allowing the water jet to be admired after dark. The site is accessible and included among wheelchair-friendly attractions.
