The construction of the building is already mentioned in 1392. Fontico got its final shape around 1460, with the appearance of the front changing somewhat later on. Fontico is one of the oldest buildings in Brolo Square. From the very beginning, the building was used as a warehouse for the grain given to the townsmen in times of bad harvest or war. In addition to the Renaissance and Gothic windows, an attractive feature of the building is also rich heraldic decorations.
