Be enchanted by the magic of the Trevi Fountain

Discover with our guide details, legends, and the stories inscribed in the bas-reliefs that tell the highlights of the history of the current fountain, from a small neighborhood fountain to a monumental work.

The pope promoted the final project to enhance the restoration he wanted of the aqueduct that feeds the Trevi Fountain, the only one surviving the collapse of the Roman Empire and still partially functioning in the Middle Ages. By increasing the flow of water and providing more to the residents of the neighborhood, who did not have it in their homes, the pope made his name immortal, also thanks to the choice of a memorable project.

The Trevi Fountain as we know it today was designed by Nicola Salvi in 1732, who worked tirelessly on it until his death, creating an atmosphere of grandeur and magnificence, of magic and mystery. The daily lives of the residents around the fountain certainly improved thanks to the abundance of water guaranteed by the restored system.

Thus, public intervention was appreciated by the people not only for its artistic values.
