Fontana delle Tartarughe

The Turtle Fountain was designed between 1581 and 1588 by Giacomo della Porta and the sculptures were created by Taddeo Landini. The fountain is built in bronze and consists of four ephebes who play with 8 dolphins resting on the pools. This causes the fountain to have a complex architectural structure enriched with marble and is distinguished from the Roman fountains of the 500. Legend says that the work was done by Duke Mattei to amaze the father-in-law who did not want to give him his daughter.
