It is located on the main street in Dubrovnik -Stradun next to Pile Gate, good choice of food, coffee, homemade cakes and good wine. A place to watch passers by and listen to jazz piano player inside.
Just inside the Pile Gate is this very interesting fountain, built by Onofrio della Cava in 1440, it was one of the ending points of the new free fall aqueduct system.
Dubrovnik in the old days had big problems with water because the summers are long and dry. They had boats that supplied the city with water because the wells were insufficient and then at the beginning of the 15th Century made a great step. The Senate decided to bring water into the city from a spring 12 kilometres away from the city walls. Water is going around Srdj hill. At the large fountain, built in 1438, water pours out from 16 spouts. It was wealthily decorated when built. In the great earthquake of 1667 it was very badly damaged and so today's appearance is noticably more humble than that of 500 years years ago. It was once again damaged during the Homeland War by two grenades
