Sassari — Fontana di Rosello

Sardinia

The Fontana di Rosello, built by Genoese craftsmen in the early 1600s over an older spring, has long marked the symbolic edge of Sassari's historic centre, its tiered marble basins and statuary among the finest Renaissance fountains in Sardinia. The surrounding streets give easy, level walking.
