The height of the fountain at that time was about 30 meters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Accordingly, a solution to the problem was reached, and it became necessary to release this pool of water in order to avoid pressure accumulation, but on the other hand, the sight of water rushing from the fountain attracted the admiration of all passers-by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Accordingly, the city moved to transform the fountain into a tourist attraction within Switzerland, so that citizens and tourists could visit the famous landmark with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Geneva Fountain was moved to a more visible spot on the quayside in Eaux-Vives, where it is today, and was inaugurated in 1891 at the Federal Gymnastics Festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since then, the fountain has begun to witness many different developments, as it was lit for the first time during the celebration of the sixtieth anniversary of the Swiss Confederation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Read also &#8211; Learn about <a href=\"https:\/\/europedia24.com\/%d8%ae%d8%b1%d9%8a%d8%b7%d8%a9-%d8%b3%d9%88%d9%8a%d8%b3%d8%b1%d8%a7\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/europedia24.com\/%d8%ae%d8%b1%d9%8a%d8%b7%d8%a9-%d8%b3%d9%88%d9%8a%d8%b3%d8%b1%d8%a7\/\">Map of Switzerland<\/a> and the most important tourist places<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#072ce3\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Features of the Geneva Fountain in Switzerland<\/mark><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/europedia24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/\u0623\u0633\u0628\u0627\u0628-\u0628\u0646\u0627\u0621-\u0646\u0627\u0641\u0648\u0631\u0629-\u062c\u0646\u064a\u0641-\u0641\u064a-\u0633\u0648\u064a\u0633\u0631\u0627-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"Reasons-to-build-the-geneva-fountain-in-switzerland\" class=\"wp-image-4953\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/europedia24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/\u0623\u0633\u0628\u0627\u0628-\u0628\u0646\u0627\u0621-\u0646\u0627\u0641\u0648\u0631\u0629-\u062c\u0646\u064a\u0641-\u0641\u064a-\u0633\u0648\u064a\u0633\u0631\u0627-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/europedia24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/\u0623\u0633\u0628\u0627\u0628-\u0628\u0646\u0627\u0621-\u0646\u0627\u0641\u0648\u0631\u0629-\u062c\u0646\u064a\u0641-\u0641\u064a-\u0633\u0648\u064a\u0633\u0631\u0627-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/europedia24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/\u0623\u0633\u0628\u0627\u0628-\u0628\u0646\u0627\u0621-\u0646\u0627\u0641\u0648\u0631\u0629-\u062c\u0646\u064a\u0641-\u0641\u064a-\u0633\u0648\u064a\u0633\u0631\u0627-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/europedia24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/\u0623\u0633\u0628\u0627\u0628-\u0628\u0646\u0627\u0621-\u0646\u0627\u0641\u0648\u0631\u0629-\u062c\u0646\u064a\u0641-\u0641\u064a-\u0633\u0648\u064a\u0633\u0631\u0627-390x220.webp 390w, https:\/\/europedia24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/\u0623\u0633\u0628\u0627\u0628-\u0628\u0646\u0627\u0621-\u0646\u0627\u0641\u0648\u0631\u0629-\u062c\u0646\u064a\u0641-\u0641\u064a-\u0633\u0648\u064a\u0633\u0631\u0627.webp 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Geneva&#8217;s Jet d&#8217;Eau has many features that have made it one of the most important and best tourist attractions in the country.
