Fountain in the Royal Square

The fountain on the Royal Square is a symbol of the city of Nantes in France. It was created in 1788 by the architect Crucy Mathurin. The architecture of the fountain resembles a three-tiered pool-pyramid.

At the very top of the fountain there is a lady of lush forms with a militant look. She is wearing a crown and a trident in her hand. Below are statues of women and men. This fountain of the river - Sèvres, Laura, Erdre, which is dominated by Nantes. Other statues in the composition represent eight geniuses of trade and industry.

During the holidays, locals and tourists often bathe in the fountain on the Royal Square. After that, the trident of the main character of the architectural complex is often not observed. So to see a weapon in the hands of Lady Nantes is lucky.
