Unique in Calabria for its artistic and historical value, the construction of the so-called “Bellissima” fountain was commissioned in 1664 by the Marquis Giovanni V ° Milano. Built in granite, it consists of a Renaissance-style base, two upper basins in Baroque style and on top a high-relief of Venus in white marble, perhaps of Greek origin. The monument is located in the center of the town square.
