#996 Fontana delle Rogge

Fontana delle Rogge, Bergamo, Italy

About this stone

A quiet little treasure in the charming streets of Città Alta, this historic fountain once played an essential role in supplying fresh water through the city's old irrigation channels, known as "rogge." Parts of the water system feeding the fountain date back to medieval hydraulic engineering, a reminder of how advanced and organized the city's infrastructure was centuries ago. Today, it may seem like just a picturesque stone fountain, but it carries centuries of everyday life within its flowing water, reflecting the area's deep connection to water and history.
