The Safarine Fountain is marked by a deep, recessed arch carved into the wall, framed by intricate geometric tilework that has faded with centuries of use. It was built during the Marinid dynasty to provide water to the metalworkers in the surrounding square. One afternoon, a copper smith named Idris noticed a crack in the stone basin that threatened to waste the precious flow. He spent his entire savings to hire a master artisan to seal the leak with lead and mortar.
