Fonte Mocinhas da Cidade

This fountain designed by Fernando Canalli pays homage to local singing duo Nhô Belarmino e Nhá Gabriela. Columns frame the tiled pictures, which have the verses to the song "Young girls of the City", which was first recorded in the early 50's.

 

There are many parks, memorials, museums and fountains within Curitiba.  The city is known for its abundant green areas and public areas.  This fountain is one of many that are found within the city.  Many are found within the historic sector where they were used as a way of quenching the thirst of horses that were within the city, others were decorative and placed around the city after horses had been replaced with the automobile.   Other interesting fountains in the area include Fonte de Jerusalem or the Fonte da Memoria, a fountain within the historic sector.
