The Fountain of the Escaleras is an ornamental fountain in the city of Fuenlabrada that occupies the center of a large roundabout or square at the confluence of Francia Street and Avenida de las Unidas.

The fountain was built in 1987, and has established itself as the symbol of a time in which there were great transformations in the municipality, going from a town that did not exceed 10,000 inhabitants at the beginning of the 1970s to a modern city with infrastructure that already exceeded 100,000 inhabitants at the beginning of the 1990s.[1]​.

The monumental complex is the work of the Mexican architect Fernando González Cortázar, and is made up of three independent elements of different sizes in the form of stairs on a slope, elevated and anchored to two highly developed concrete wall-beams, with a triangular shape and supported on rectangular pillars. Each element is actually a fountain that cascades over the lower base in a set of sheets or curtains of water.[2]​.

The sculpture is located on an elliptical island whose axes are respectively 55 and 27 meters, formed by prefabricated concrete curbs. The monumental fountain can be visited through a pedestrian walkway paved with boulders between green areas with grass and sheets of water. The fountains operate through a closed circuit that has an electric pump group to drive the flow from the suction chamber to its outlet at the upper levels of the stepped slopes. The lamp holders of the luminaires were designed as "hermetic-underwater" type, with a light beam orientation system.[2]​.
