The monumental fountain, known as the Fountain of Venus, and its aqueduct were planned from 1883 and realised the following year. The once larger artistic fountain was reassembled according to the current design in 1944. Removed in the 1970s, it was relocated to its original location in 2000. Consisting of two registers made of local stone blocks, the fountain is characterised by three cast-iron masks from which as many spouts emerge. The top part is decorated with a cast-iron reproduction by the Val D'Osne company of Christophe-Gabriel Allegrain's famous Baigneuse.
