The Fountain Inn in New Castle, Pennsylvania, was a historic four-story brick hotel originally built between 1851 and 1852 as the Cochran House. Around 1881, it became known as the Fountain House or Fountain Inn, named for the elaborate four lion head fountains that flowed drinkable water into a basin for horses. It was located on the Diamond, the central public square of New Castle, and was once considered one of the best hotels in western Pennsylvania.
