Château de Versailles | Place d'Armes
Construction of the Neptune Fountain took place between 1679 and 1681, under the supervision of Le Nôtre. At that time, it was referred to as the "water feature beneath the Dragon" or the "Pines feature". Ange-Jacques Gabriel modified the outlines slightly in 1736, and 1740 saw the sculpted decorations set in place. The new fountain, inaugurated by Louis XV, contains ninety nine water jets and effects.
