Fuente de Los Cañillos

Fuente de Los Cañillos

Behind the Fuente de los Cañillos stands the House of the Clothier, which is currently unoccupied. Some people avoid drinking from one of its spouts because the clothier used to clean his teeth in it. The fountain serves both people and animals, as there is a drinking trough behind it. Nowadays, it’s common to find people filling bottles and carafes with water, as they prefer it to the water from the communal tap. The fountain itself dates back to the Moorish period of La Peza, when baths were located in the church. It is assumed that the same spring was used for both. It is located next to the Iglesia Parroquial de Nuestra Señora de la Anunciación.
