Before the existence of water distribution systems, the Paderne Fountain served as a water supply and public washing place. It was also a social gathering place. In the 20th century, it was renovated, remaining a place of interest and preserving its historical and community importance. Currently, it is still used by some residents to obtain fresh water.

In the barn you can buy local fruit and vegetables, all organic and unsprayed; so from the country.
