Tourists gathering around The Large Onofrio Fountain or big fountain of Onofrio inside the City walls of The Old Town, Dubrovnik, Croatia

---

Large Onofrio Fountain, One of Dubrovnik’s most famous landmarks, this circular fountain was built in 1438 as part of a water-supply system that involved bringing water from a spring 12km away. Originally the fountain was adorned with sculptures, but it was heavily damaged in the 1667 earthquake and only 16 carved masks remain, with drinkable water dribbling from their mouths into a drainage pool.
