Wirt Ghawdex has said that it has now successfully completed the restoration of the 1881 Fountain and the adjacent cross, which is situated on the crossroads of Republic Street and the Marsalforn Rd in Victoria, Gozo.
This restoration included the replacement of the greenface (where the water spout is) with a new carving of the face as it was in the original plans. It also included a new lighting system.
This fountain was erected in 1881 to commemorate the supply of water from the aqueducts to the then new residential area around the Capuchin Church.
