On the south side of Largo de Santiago, the fountain of the same name is actually a covered public washhouse with a water fountain outside. The unusual 16th century square design was built on the orders of archbishop Diogo de Sousa to improve the people´s lot.

On the fountain, there is a niche with a statue of Santiago and its inscription detailing the donor and the year 1531, the coat of arms of Diogo and an iron donation box right by the water spout.
