The Wignacourt Aqueduct (Maltese: L-Akwedott ta' Wignacourt) is a 17th-century aqueduct in Malta, which was built by the Order of Saint John to carry water from springs in Dingli and Rabat to the newly built capital city Valletta. The aqueduct carried water through underground pipes and over arched viaducts across depressions in the ground.
In the late 1990s, the fountain's water and lighting systems were refurbished by the Malta Desalination Services and the Water Works Division. [15] Over time, further deterioration to the sculpture occurred, including corrosion and cracks in the figures. [5]
