Google Maps reviews of this place
Reviews posted by visitors on Google Maps.
La Fontaine Bartholdi, en la Place des Terreaux, es obra de Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, el mismo escultor de la Statue of Liberty. Curiosamente, esta fuente fue concebida antes que la Estatua de la Libertad, y en ella ya aparece esa obsesión de Bartholdi por la fuerza, el movimiento y los grandes símbolos colectivos. Viajar te regala estas conexiones inesperadas: una plaza, una fuente, y de pronto la historia se despliega. Un regalo. Una belleza que te recuerda que el arte también une ciudades y tiempos.
Espectacular fuente en una plaza donde está el Ayuntamiento y el museo de Bellas Artes. Muy bonito verlo por la noche
No tenía agua pero muy grande muy espectacular en medio de la plaza
