Well at the Square is the name of a map label in central Bol, beside Ulica uz pjacu. Available documentation does not confirm the structure’s exact date or history.

Name and location

The label is in Bol’s old town. The name suggests a well or rainwater cistern beside the local square, but the online map alone does not establish when it was built, its original depth or any later alterations.

Water in Bol’s history

A monograph on Bol mentions discussions about a public fountain and a rainwater cistern in the early 20th century. This provides broader context for the water supply, but is not enough to reliably identify the fountain described there with this well. A well with the same name on Hvar’s square is a different site.

Access

The location is in the town centre. Check the actual position and condition of the site before approaching; do not climb on the opening, cover or stone rim.
