    The spring is named after Napoleon Bonaparte, who wanted to use the medicinal water to relieve chronic bladder problems.
    Good, drinkable water still gushes from the spring. Locals often come to fill the water in canisters. Some like to leave tourists with their single bottle.

      The Fonte Napoleone is located on the road from Poggio to Marciana. This is where the mineral water sold all over the island is bottled. You can fill it up free of charge directly at the source in your own bottle. Napoleon Bonaparte was extremely impressed by the quality of this water and decreed that anyone could use it. Islanders make good use of this, arriving with a trunk full of empty bottles and containers. But if you just want to fill up your bottle quickly, you will usually be let in front.
