Photo - The Fontaine du Soleil in Place Masséna is not just a beautiful landmark but also a symbol of Nice’s historical connection to the arts and culture. The fountain, which was completed in 1832, features a stunning marble statue of Apollo, the Greek god of the sun, standing as a tribute to the city's Mediterranean heritage. Its placement at the heart of Place Masséna — Nice's main public square — makes it an iconic representation of the city’s vibrant history, from its Greek origins to its later cultural prominence. The fountain’s design is a blend of classical elements, and its name "Fontaine du Soleil" pays homage to the sun, which is often present over the city, just maybe not today!
