Fontana del Moro is located in Piazza Navona, together with Fontana del Nettuno and Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi. It represents an African man wrestling with a dolphin.

Fontana del Nettuno is located in Piazza Navona, on the opposite side of Fontana del Moro. In the past, it was known as Fontana dei Calderari. That is because it was near a small alley stuffed with the blacksmith workshops, who also made pots, pans, and other metal objects.

Giacomo della Porta designed this fountain in Rome at the order of Pope Gregory XIII. Sculpted by Leonardo Sormani, the Fontana del Pantheon is today admired by travelers from all over the world who come to see the Pantheon in Piazza della Rotonda. ......
