Fontana di Grimoaldo

Near the Church of San Antonio Abate, there is a fountain, today known as the “Fontana Tecta”, which played an important role, as it offered the possibility of refreshment to the numerous travelers who traveled the well-known Via Salernitana. The real denomination of the Fountain is not that of Fontana Tecta, but the one indicated in a document dated December 1138 in the Abbey of Montevergine, namely “Fontana di Grimoaldo” by the name of the rich character who promoted its aesthetic enrichment and functional transformation.
