The Rutland Fountain (officially The Duke of Rutland Memorial Fountain) on Merrion Square in Dublin, Ireland is a neo-classical ornamental drinking fountain facing out of the west side of Merrion Square and towards the National Gallery of Ireland. It is designed in a Georgian-Palladian style as a blind triumphal arch, a common trope of the era, and was dedicated to Charles Manners, 4th Duke of Rutland, although only executed after his death from liver disease as a result of alcoholism in October 1787.
