Gauthier place fountain

AUPS

This charming, imposing and balanced fountain, known as a crossing fountain, rests on a stone base.

Probably dating back to the early 19th century, it was restored in December 1866 and the lion-headed masks with beaks symbolizing popular power. The door jug visible in the basin was used to ensure the bucket placed on the bars. Its capital with three degrees evokes the Trinity. The stones of the basin are not maintained by crampons or staples but by interlocking.
