Ornamental fountain

Szentes’s first artesian well was drilled almost 140 years ago The water source, opened in 1886, was complemented a year later by a group of statues brought from France. This work of unparalleled beauty graced the town’s main square until 1934. After that, the sculptures were moved around for decades, and although several plans were made to restore the ornamental fountain, it was not until 1998 that the artwork was finally reborn. Today, it can be viewed in Luther Square.
