Fonte Nuova d’Ovile
The stone basin at Fonte Nuova d’Ovile anchors a northern waterworks walk below Porta Ovile. Pair the basin with the nearby gate to understand this edge of Siena.
The basin and nearby Porta Ovile make a useful pair for understanding the city’s northern water edge. Here the route drops from the ridge toward older waterworks. Take time to connect the stone fountain with the gate above instead of treating either as an isolated photo stop.
