FONTAINE DES INNOCENTS
A superb Renaissance building, the Fountain of the Innocents, located in Paris.
The Renaissance-style Fountain of the Innocents was designed by architect Pierre Lescot and sculptor Jean Goujon in 1549. After many trials and tribulations, it was installed on the square, which was then dedicated to a market, but this was later removed to make way for the new halles (covered market). The fountain was then moved to the center of the square. After several months of renovation, it was restored to its former glory in time for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
