Description

Antes de sairmos da cidade muralhada de Elvas, apreciem o património histórico que as fotos de hoje retratam. A Igreja das Dominicas, que se situa nas traseiras da antiga Sé de Elvas, e duas fontes/fontanários, que apresentam finos e belíssimos detalhes esculpidos em pedra mármore. As fotos que tiveram oportunidade de ver foram tiradas durante uma visita de cerca de 2 horas à cidade de Elvas. Com elas pretendi, sobretudo, dar-vos uma visão pessoal, e devido à duração da visita, naturalmente, parcial desta bela cidade, que Paco Bandeira cantou ... Ó Elvas, ó Elvas, Badajoz à vista ... “ - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfPRe_qZxwo" rel="nofollow">www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfPRe_qZxwo</a>. Votos de uma boa semana. Um abraço Celestino Manuel Fonte da Misericórdia

Assim denominada por ter sido construída no largo que lhe deu o nome, foi transferida em 1951 para a actual praça 25 de Abril, onde ainda se encontra. Foi desenhada por Diogo Marques, arquitecto da Casa Real, e inaugurada a 23 de Junho de 1622, dia em que pela primeira vez chegou a Elvas a água do Aqueduto da Amoreira. Toda em mármore, é formada por um pináculo com bola, sendo o conjunto suportado por seis colunas. Ao centro, a estátua de D. Sancho II com as armas de Portugal. Além dessa pequena estátua, e passando pelos intervalos das colunas, seis golfinhos servem de bicas à fonte, jorrando a água para um tanque com forma triangular. Uma grade de ferro, apoiada em mármore, na forma de baluartes, circunda a fonte.
