The Fontana del Pantheon is a fountain in Rome, designed in 1575 by Giacomo Della Porta and modified in 1711 by Filippo Barigioni. The fountain has an oval shape with four masks that spew water and an obelisk in the center, which comes from an ancient Egyptian temple. The fountain stands in front of the Pantheon, one of the city's most famous monuments.
