Located of the same name formed by the Rambla and the streets of Boqueria and of Aroles and Ferran. Currently attached to the ground floor of the Hotel Internacional, built in 1884, although the fountain dates from 1830.
It is made up of a semicircular semicircular arch, inside which is depicted a coat of arms of Barcelona with the attributes of Hercules (the nail and the lion's foot on its feet), which according to legend was the founder of the city. Under the shield are three sculpted stones with the relief of a human face, each with a laurel wreath and a lion mane. Between them the two taps.
This point was at one of the gates of the medieval entrance wall to the city of Barcelona. Here street vendors and farmers from nearby villages and farmhouses gathered to sell outside the walls and save on entry taxes.
