In Alberona, an ancient and romantic village in the province of Foggia, the link with water is very strong and evident; it is no coincidence that the village is referred to as the "land of water" given the presence of numerous monumental fountains. Among these, the most characteristic is certainly the Mute Fountain.
The village of Alberona, from the slopes of Monte Stilo, has always guaranteed the flow of water throughout the plain of the Tavoliere delle Puglie. If you decide to take an interesting and suggestive itinerary to discover the many ancient fountains of this small village in the heart of the Dauni Mountains, you cannot fail to start from the wonderful and imposing Mute Fountain.
This historic fountain is located at the entrance to the town coming from Lucera. Over the centuries it has been used by travelers to refresh their horses and to cool off after a long journey. Its peculiarity can already be found in the name; the fountain, in fact, is called "mute" due to the curious, and somewhat mysterious, absence of noise that characterizes the falling of its waters.
The mute fountain dates back to the nineteenth century and is certainly one of the oldest still present in the village in the province of Foggia. In the villages of the Dauni Mountains, the most beautiful experience you can have is to forget about technology, not look at the clock and get lost in the thousand alleys that branch off into the historic centers.
In Alberona, as in other small and characteristic villages of the Daunia, time seems to have stopped and every single street can reserve enchanting treasures. If like us you love to get lost in the alleys of the villages of the Capitanata, we suggest you organize a real treasure hunt in the heart of Alberona, in search of its many and characteristic fountains.
