Fontaine de la Rotonde
The large Rotonde fountain marks the western end of Cours Mirabeau where major streets meet. Its circular basins and elevated figures make it an urban landmark beyond the old-town lanes.

Read the fountain as part of the nineteenth-century city rather than simply as a decorative water feature. Its scale suits the broad junction and differs sharply from the small fountains fitted into Aix's narrow streets. The sculptural composition rewards a look from the pedestrian edges, where you can also understand its role as a point of orientation at the promenade's end.
