Wallace Fountain

Open

Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Paris

💧"4 liters of water for free"
🏛️Simpler "colonnette" model, not the ornate Wallace fountains
🚶Perfect for refilling while exploring on foot

Paris's lesser-known "colonnette" fountains have been quenching thirst since the 1870s, offering free potable water from elegant cast-iron posts far simpler than their famous Wallace cousins. Fill your bottle and taste a bit of civic history.
