La Plaza del cardenal Toledo se forma tras la desamortización del Convento de Santa María de las Dueñas en 1868. En principio se pensó en construir un jardín, pero en 1869 se decidió construir una plaza. Tomó su nombre del antiguo convento hasta que se sustituyó por el actual nombre del Plaza del Cardenal Toledo.
Bourbon style font, designed by Víctor Escribano Ucelay. The fountain was carved by the García Rueda brothers in Italian white marble. It has a quadrangular pylon with a mixtilinear profile, with the angles curved towards the inside, but also with a mixtilinear profile. From the center arises the central pillar that supports the first fairly flat circular cup and from it the bulbous column on which a second smaller cup shaped like a scallop rises and in which the vertical spout from which the water gushes out is located, overflowing of the cup.
