The Fuente en Álamos - Alameda is a historic fountain located in the heart of the village, marked by a small sign. It was once a central meeting place for the residents, especially for the aguadoras – women who fetched water, skillfully filling jugs directly with running water using a funnel and a long stick. This activity was not only a daily chore but also a kind of original artistry, as described by the writer Francisco Jiménez Conde. The fountain thus symbolizes not only the historical water supply of the community but also the practical skills and traditions of Alameda's inhabitants.
