  If you are traveling by car, start from the center of Fribourg and head towards Rue de Romont. Follow the signs for the city center. Once you reach the roundabout at the top of the hill, take the first exit onto Boulevard de Pérolles. Continue straight until you reach the intersection with Route de la Glâne. Turn left and then immediately right onto Marché-aux-Poissons. Look for parking options in the vicinity, as street parking may be limited. The Fontaine Notre-Dame du Rosaire is located at Marché-aux-Poissons, 1700 Fribourg.

After about 5 minutes, get off at the 'Marché-aux-Poissons' stop. From there, the Fontaine Notre-Dame du Rosaire is just a short walk away. Exit the bus and head towards the square; the fountain is prominently located at the center.
