The Children's Fountain in Pontevedra is one of the most emblematic points of the city. It is located in the Glorieta de Compostela and is known for its sculpture of two girls waiting for a boy who is drinking at the fountain. Although it is popularly called “the children's fountain”, its official name was established in 1950 because the Portuguese Way passed through it. An interesting visit if you are in the area! 😊

It is a fountain that periodically releases jets from the ground and where you can see the sculpture of two girls waiting for a boy who is drinking from the fountain. The figures are made of bronze and were inaugurated in 2002.
