Introduction

The name of this fountain comes from its former crest (of which traces can still be seen) of Tomàs de Lorenzana (1728-1796), Bishop of Girona, with two lions symbolising his birthplace in León. 

Another feature of the locality is La Torre dam, which originally channelled water towards a nearby farmhouse called Mas de la Torre. It is now useful for crossing over to the fountain when the stream is in full spate.
