Representative of the neoclassical style, this fountain was built by renowned architect Francisco Eduardo Tresguerras. In 1797, H. Queretaro City Council commissioned this work, dedicated to the god of the sea in Latin mythology. Originally it was located within the walls of the garden of the Convent of San Antonio on the corner of Corregidora and 16 Septiembre. 

In 1908 it was moved to the Santa Clara garden without the side walls, niches and vases.
