Fontaine d'Espéluque, Place des Martyrs de la Résistance, 13100 Aix-en-Provence
The oldest is the Espeluque fountain (Espeluco means “cave” in Provençal).


For many years the only source of water for the old market town of Saint-Sauveur (15th century), it was moved several times before being finally installed in the new place de l’Archevêtché by Georges Vallon in 1756.


It has been adorned with a medallion commemorating Marcel Provence since 1953.
