The Tivoli Fountain is installed on the Washington State Capitol campus in Olympia, Washington, United States.
It is a replica of a Roman-style fountain in Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen, Denmark, which itself was inspired by fountains of Villa dâÂÂEste in the Italian Renaissance garden style.
The fountain is made of cement and features tulip-shaped copper tubs, 540 water jets which form an umbrella shape, and a large central spout shooting water 25 feet upward. All together, the fountain circulates 600 gallons of water per minute.
A plaque on the east side of the fountain is inscribed with:
<blockquote> Replica of the Tivoli Fountain <br>Tivoli Park, Copenhagen, Denmark <br>Presented to the <br>State of Washington <br>by <br>Olympia-Tumwater Foundation <br>Peter G. Schmidt, President <br>1953 </blockquote>
The fountain was dedicated on April 15, 1953, by Governor Arthur B. Langlie.
In 2017, the fountain underwent a restoration and modernization project, which resulted in a reduction of water usage by 32%.
On September 16, 2024, the fountain was shut off to repair a water leak through the concrete basin. The fountain was reopened on September 25.
