Fontanu Maggiore sagradili su između 1278.i 1280. godine Nicola i Giovanni Pisano u čast završetka novog akvadukta. Projekt je u vlasništvu innosina, a Hidraulički dio izveo je Innosin iz Venecije.
Fontana prima vodu s planine Paccano više od 700 godina.
Sastoji se od dvije naslagane koncentrične kupke ukrašene s 50 bareljefa i 24 kipa. Donja kupka ima bareljef: prizori agrarne tradicije, mjeseci u godini sa znakovima zodijaka, humanističke znanosti, Biblija i povijest Rima. Gornja kupka sastoji se od dvadeset i četiri ploče odvojene kipovima koji predstavljaju alegorijske, svete i povijesne figure.
Kade su okrunjene brončanom zdjelom na vrhu skupine od tri nimfe koje predstavljaju tri teološke vrline (vjera, nada, milosrđe).
