ES: "La fuente de la plaza de las Tendillas se creó en el año 1970 en forma de U presentando su abertura hacia la calle Gondomar, de acuerdo al proyecto realizado por el arquitecto Carlos Font. En 1980 se ajardinó su perímetro y en el año 1999 se culminó una remodelación completa de la plaza. En aquella remodelación la fuente se sustituyó por otra nueva formada por una base interior de mármol negro y rebosadero curvado desde el que se desliza el agua y cae a un recinto exterior de forma poligonal realizado en mármol gris. La fuente sirve de soporte para la escultura ecuestre del Gran Capitán."
EN: "The U-shaped fountain in the Plaza de las Tendillas was built in 1970 facing Calle de Gondomar, following the design by architect Carlos Font. In 1980, flower beds were built around it and in 1999, the whole square was completely remodelled and a new fountain installed with a black marble base and curved overflow pipes which channel the water into a polygonal grey marble font on the exterior. The fountain is presided by the imposing equestrian sculpture of the ‘Gran Capitan’."
