Also known as the "Fontana della Rua," this fountain is located in the square along Corso Cavour, one of the most characteristic corners of the city. The square hosts, against the wall supporting the garden of the Benedettoni (now the terrace of Hotel Fonte Cesia), a fountain built by Angelo Cesi in 1606, shortly before his death. The fountain was designed to channel water from one of the city’s largest aqueducts, flowing from the Rocca. This was meant to provide water for the horses accompanying the solemn and majestic processions through which the Church, including in Todi, celebrated its grandeur.

The central niche contains decorative elements, such as the eagle of Todi and the noble crest of the Cesi family. The fountain, which suffered severe damage from a landslide that caused the collapse of the supporting wall, was restored in 1705 by the Governor of the city and was modified in 1925 when two side basins were added during the construction of the new city aqueduct. The fountain is a historical testimony to the abundance of water hidden beneath the hill on which Todi stands. Of particular interest is the small wooden door on one side of the fountain, which provides access to the conduit, a diversion of an ancient Roman tunnel that once extended to San Fortunato.
