1614 Carlo Maderno (1556/1629) for Paul V Borghese (1605/21) of whom the arms are represented in the fountain
The circular basin at the top of the fountain is not original
It was originally located in the now disappeared Piazza Scossacavalli, corresponding to the current Via della Conciliazione and therefore known as FONTANA DI SCOSSACAVALLI (Scossacavalli Fountain)
It was moved to a municipal warehouse in 1937 after the opening of Via della Conciliazione and then placed here in 1957
