Saint Andrew Fountain : info and guided tour

Introduction to the Fountain of Saint Andrew

The Fountain of Saint Andrew is located in Piazza Duomo, in the heart of Amalfi, in a setting dominated by the cathedral. It catches the eye with its central presence in the square and its role as a landmark in the public space, accompanying visitors as they stroll among the historic façades.

This fountain is associated with Saint Andrew, Amalfi’s patron saint, who is highly present in the city’s religious and civic identity. Its name thus evokes the link between the monument, the Duomo square, and local tradition. It contributes to the atmosphere of the old town center, between architectural heritage and daily life.

Its appeal is as much urban as decorative: the fountain complements the monumental ensemble of the piazza and offers a favored viewpoint facing the cathedral. It is often noted for its simple presentation and its coherence with the setting of the square, one of Amalfi’s most emblematic places.
