Fontaine d'Espéluque
Near the cathedral, the Espéluque fountain pairs classical stonework with a bronze portrait of Marcel Provence. Its wall setting creates a smaller, more intimate counterpart to Aix's freestanding fountains.

Notice the Doric pilasters, the framed stone back and the portrait medallion above the water basin. The reference to Marcel Provence connects the monument with an advocate for Provençal heritage, adding a later layer to the older fountain. Its position close to the cathedral makes it worth a short, separate look at public water architecture within the same northern old-town cluster.
