Borne Fontaine

Borne Fontaine (or Kiosque à eau) is a permanent fountain, from artist Danièle Diwouta-Kotto, inaugurated in 2003.

Its creation was commissioned by Doual'art, produced by Danièle Diwouta-Kotto, then offered to the Douala Municipality.

Before its construction, Danièle Diwouta-Kotto, an architect whose firm secured the prime contractor, had had several conversations with the community.

The people of Bessengu-Akwa wanted a framework that would be a meeting point, would offer an attractive sight and would also provide water.

In particular, the roof reflects the style of the ephemeral building, created by the artist Jesús Palomino, in the workshop Bessengue City organized by Goddy Leye and theart center ArtBakery.
