Dom Pedro IV Square. the fountains
In 1889 two monumental Baroque fountains were installed on either side of the Monument to Pedro IV.
The two identical fountains were were originally cast at the foundry in Val d'Osne, France. The sculptures embellishing the fountains - created by the French sculptors Mathurin Moreau and Michel Lienard - depict mythical figures. The fountains are especially beautiful at night when they are illuminated.
