Fuente de los Cinco Caños

Also known as the 'Lavadero de San Joaquín y Santa Ana' during the first three quarters of the twentieth century, this laundry area was the social centre of the town as it was where all the women met to do their washing. Consisting of an elongated, single-storey building with exposed brick façades and a tiled roof, it has a closed core covering the spring and cistern on one side and open porticos with semicircular arches for the laundry on the other, built in 1897. It is located on Calle Lavadero.
