Lucca, June 2024

"In the centre of the square there is an area surrounded by marble columns joined by chains, from which the name Piazza dei Ferri derives, inside which there is a fountain, built in marble and in a circular shape, which Lorenzo Nottolini designed and had built in 1832. It, now connected to the municipal aqueduct, was originally supplied with water by the Nottolini aqueduct coming from the fresh springs of the Pisan mountains and taken in the Guamo area."
