The Fontana del Vàgine is set in the first of the round arches that can be seen towards the former prison of Sant'Agata.
This fountain was already known in Roman times as "Fons Opacinus", or tramontana source, given its position facing north.
Now the aquifer has dried up and the water no longer flows out. The fountain was used by both inhabitants and horses and had a wash house and a large cistern.
