Fontanário de Santa Cristina
This fountain, one of the oldest in Viseu, has two spouts, both of them dry, one of which covered by wood. One of the fountains, the one that stands on the span of the gothic arch, is medieval, dates back to the 16th century and was commanded by a princess of Castille who was the wife of Dom Manuel I. The other fountain, under the 1600s small temple, was built later. There is also a small granite square by it and benches.
