The fountain was built in 1777 by Charles Murray and served primarily to accommodate pilgrims walking up to the nearby church of Monte. I only noticed it because it's right next to the sleigh ride ticket kiosk - I suspect most people don't give it a second glance, even though there's a descriptive board next to it. It may have once been a fountain, but today there is a faucet built into the back wall.
