Fontana della Navicella

 

The fountain in front of Chiesa di S.Maria in Domnica, Fontana della Navicella, is a mini-re production in marble (1513) of a real ancient boat which was probably a votive offering from the Castra Peregrina, a camp for non-Italian soldiers, situated between Via Santo Stefano and Via Navicella. In 1931 the statue was incorporated into a fountain in contest of enlarging of the street and rearrangement of the zone.
