Description

Clarence F. Buckingham Memorial Fountain is one of the largest fountains in the world, inspired by the Latona Fountain at the Palace of Versailles.

This impressive Rococo-style structure symbolizes Lake Michigan and the four states of the Midwest. The fountain uses up to 15,000 gallons of water per minute, and its central jet shoots water 45 meters high.

In the evening, visitors can enjoy spectacular light and music shows that create a magical atmosphere. The fountain is surrounded by Art Deco style sculptures, including four sets of seahorses, adding an artistic dimension to the attraction.
