Ginkgo biloba L., 1771 is a gymnosperm plant, the only surviving species of the Ginkgoaceae family, of the entire Ginkgoales order (Engler, 1898) and of the Ginkgophyta division. It is a very ancient tree whose origins date back 250 million years to the Permian[2] and is therefore considered a living fossil. It is a relict species and owes its resilience to its high resistance to drought and cold (−34°C) and air pollution.[3] Ginkgo biloba is the symbol of the city of Tokyo. WHY IT IS A FOSSIL: It belongs to the Gymnosperms: the seeds are not protected by the ovary. The apricot-shaped structures produced by female specimens are not fruits, but rather ovules covered by a fleshy envelope (they do not contain seeds, as no embryo exists yet. Fertilization, if it occurs, since the false fruit is produced regardless of contact with pollen, will only occur in the ground, after detachment from the tree).

“The Fountain of the Three Religions – explained the First Citizen, Federico Pizzarotti – was recovered by the Municipality, after a long period in which it remained dismantled in the warehouses of the Municipality itself, to be placed, not by chance, in this place where it conveys a message of civilization and brotherhood, in a time in which religions are often used in an instrumental way. It is a symbol of community and inclusion”. The widow of the sculptor Pitro Cascella, the sculptor Cordelia von de Steinen, focused on the meaning of the work. “My husband had conceived the idea of a sculpture dedicated to the Three Religions since the 1990s. Today, more than then, this fountain is current, for the meanings it implies: the basin represents the Mediterranean Sea into which the jets of water from the symbols of the Three Religions pour, each of which has contributed and contributes to its life”. The fountain represents the symbols of the three monotheistic religions: Christianity, represented by a cross; Judaism, represented by the Star of David; the crescent moon representing the Islamic world and Muslims. The choice to place the fountain near the Duc stems from the fact that it is a very popular space in today's increasingly cosmopolitan world. Situated, therefore, in a sort of pedestrian crossroads, it is an expression of the different cultural and religious realities of the world: a symbol, therefore, of social cohesion and intercultural dialogue. The fountain was included in the plan for the redevelopment, recovery and re-functionalization of the spaces outside Duc A and Duc B, which form a green strip between Viale Mentana and the two buildings that house the citizen counters, various offices, and public utility services. This closes the story linked to the fountain, which was commissioned in 2008 by the then Municipal Administration. Initially it should have been placed where the fountain is today, also by Cascella, located in the center of the roundabout of Strada Elevata (intersection of Via Zarotto, Mantova, Via Emilia). This was not the case, as a new one was commissioned, again by Pietro Cascella. The new fountain, at the intersection of Strada Elevata, was inaugurated, shortly after the artist's death, in October 2008. Subsequently, between 2008 and 2009 the idea was to mount the fountain of the Three Religions in the area where the EFSA is located, but the idea was then abandoned. The fountain of the Three Religions was preserved for years, dismantled, in the warehouses of the Municipality in Via Spezia. Hence the intention of the current Administration to recover it, enhancing it and inserting it into a new urban context.

In December 2025, the monumental fountain of Barriera Repubblica returned to gush with water games and lights of different colors. The intervention was desired by the municipal administration as a sign of good wishes to the city on the occasion of Christmas.

Beautiful to look at but difficult to reach. The green gradually overgrows the entire work of art. Pruning would be desirable.

Old trees in the park provide protection in all weather conditions. The ages of the trees inspire confidence. Sit down and enjoy beautiful crowns.
