The Trevi Fountain (in Italian: Fontana di Trevi) is a famous landmark in Rome, built in 1762. It is said to ensure anyone who throws coins into the fountain a return to the city. The Trevi Fountain appears in Mario is Missing! as one of the landmarks that are attacked by Koopa Troopas and that Luigi subsequently visits in Rome. It is closed because the Koopa Troopas stole the fountain's Coins, and it cannot reopen until Luigi returns them, after which he is given $1500 as a reward.

Pamphlet Information from Mario is Missing!

Legend says that if a visitor tosses coins over his shoulder into the Trevi Fountain he will one day return to Rome. The Trevi Fountain is one of the best known landmarks in Rome because of its fable, but also because of its fancy carvings. The fountain was shown in a 1954 movie, 'Three Coins in the Fountain.'
