A 19th century fountain in the Fisherman's Square. On the pedestal is Virgo (nymph) and the pitcher pours water into the bowl, from which the flow streams into the lower basin. On the sides of the base are relief panels with the god Neptune. The statue was restored and gilded by sculptor Vasja Urlih.

Apparently this fountain once stood at Tivoli Castle and was then called Hippocrene.
