The oldest fountain in Barcelona is the one of Santa Anna. It dates from 1356 and it is an emblematic enclave in the heart of the Gothic Quarter, just a few steps from the Barcelona's Cathedral. It is a fundamental witness to the history of the city.
As all fountains, in the beginning it was just a drinking place (though) for horses. Only years later it was expanded with a fountain for the enjoyment of
the neighbors who did not have running water.
Attached to the Royal Artistic Circle, this
octagonal fountain changed shape. In the 19th century, the ornamental part of the fountain was expanded with a sculpture and in 1918 its walls were decorated with
ceramic panels and vases were made that were placed on top of the structure.
