The Fontana dell’ACEA is located in front of the ACEA (a water and electricity company) building in Rome and is one of the most recently constructed fountains in Rome.
ACEA Fountain Rome
History and curiosities
It was built in 1962, after a design by the architects Ugo Macri, Giorgio Quaroni and Americo Romitelli, the winners of an architectural competition.
The Fontana dell’ACEA is at its most beautiful in the evening thanks to a tastefully organized illumination. The fountain is characterized by water falling from vertical structures that are decorated with bas-reliefs.
The ACEA fountain is still supplied with water from the Acquedotto Marcio, one of Rome’s ancient aqueducts.
