The Trocadéro Fountain, also known as the Warsaw Fountain, is a fountain located in the Trocadéro Gardens, situated below the Palais de Chaillot in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, France.
The fountain's footprint (lawns and basins) forms an island bordered by four public roads: Place de Varsovie (named in 1928), Avenue Albert Ier de Monaco (named in 1932), Avenue Hussein Ier de Jordanie (named in 1999), and Avenue Gustave V de Suède (named in 1951).
