This point is the 4th of the Route of A Esmorga. This is an important book of Blanco Amor. There is a Wherigo of the route.

"In the alley in front of which today the Municipal Tourist Office is located, the spout of a fountain is preserved from which water no longer flows and which gives its name to this corner. Above it, the old shield of the city, in which the lion appears alone, without the tower and the bridge that will be incorporated later. The protagonists of A Esmorga pass through here, under the watchful eye of the sculpture of Father Feijóo. So do those of Cambio en Tres, a novel by Carlos Casares (Letras Galegas 2017)"

In the end of chapter 3 page 75 we can read:"No tocante ós «autos», coma vostede me enseña, pois a pouco andare, logo que saímos da eirexa, parámonos un anaquiño a ceibarnos daquela risa que nos abafaba, e logo fumos a dare á Fonte do Rei onde mexamos na pía, con licencia de vostede"

trad:
As for the "autos" as you teach me, because as soon as we left, as soon as we left the eirexa, we stopped for a moment to free ourselves from that laughter that overwhelmed us, and then we went to the King's Fountain where we moved in the sink, with leave of you.

Auto= A court order is an official proclamation by a judge (or panel of judges) that defines the legal relationships between the parties to a hearing, a trial, an appeal or other court proceedings.
