Organ Fountain of the Villa d'Este

Fountain "Water Organ", Organ, Fontana dell'Organo
Italy, Tivoli
The Organ Fountain is located at the Villa d'Este in Tivoli. The fountain is notable for the fact that the pressure of its water triggers the mechanism by which organ music begins to play. The fountain was built in 1568, destroyed in the 18th century and rebuilt in our time.

Perhaps the most memorable fountain in the garden. The fountain contains a water mechanism (created by K. Vernard) with which the organ plays. In those days, listeners could hardly believe that it was just water flowing, and not a hidden orchestra playing, and simply considered it a miracle. The organ plays according to the schedule, check at the box office.
