It is hard to miss this fountain as it sits at the top of Piazza di Campo which is the main square in Siena. It is not on the same scale as the fountains of, say, Rome but if you are in the square you can see it. A pleasant enough place to sit.

It was a stunning public fountain right at the top of the Campo. Beautiful carvings send cool drinking water spouts. Lovely steps to loiter on and people watch at the Campo.
I am hesitant to give this 5 stars as I wouldn't go out of my way to see it. But there is 90% chance you will see it anyway as it is located in the main square, and there are no other monuments there so its very easy to spot.
If you visit the museum del scala by the duomo you will see the original pieces dating back to the 1200's
Great photo opportunity as long as it is not too busy
An interesting fountain that is situated on the side of the central Piazza Il Campo. It is a point of interest for tourists. This fountain dates back to the early medieval period where it served as an end point of conduits that brought water to the city. The current fountain dates back to the 1800's. It is not a grand fountain and is a rectangular based adorned on both sides with bas reliefs. Still offers a good photo op.
