The Trevi Fountain's coin-tossing tradition, popularized by the 1954 film 'Three Coins in the Fountain,' continues to thrive, attracting tourists regardless of restoration disruptions.
Despite a recent three-month restoration that limited access to the fountain, visitors still tossed about 61,000 euros' worth of coins into a temporary tub, showing unwavering commitment to the ritual.
Fabrizio Marchioni, who manages coin collection for Caritas, noted that tourists eagerly participate in the coin toss tradition, indifferent to any construction activity around the fountain.
The enduring appeal of tossing a coin into the Trevi Fountain is a testament to both its cultural significance and the influence of cinematic references on tourism.
