Geneva Fountain

Originally a simple security valve at the Coulouvrenière hydraulic factory, this water fountain has, over the years, grown to be the symbol of Geneva.

In 1891, it was transferred to the “Rade”, to become a major tourist attraction. However, it was not until 1951 that it was provided with an autonomous pumping station, propelling 500 litres of water per second to a height of 140 metres at a speed of 200 km per hour (124 miles/h). Eight 9,000-watt projectors light the fountain’s majestic column in the evening as it soars skywards.

Barcelona Fountain

The original Barcelona fountain of magic was built for the 1888 Expo World Fair in Ciutadella Park. Determined to improve on their previous effort, a subsequent fountain was designed and constructed for Barcelona’s 1929 World Expo. This fountain has become a real landmark in Barcelona and is situated near Montjuïc. With coloured light shining through the water, the Barcelona Magic Fountain almost appears to dance and is quite mesmerising.
