The two were fined more than 1000 euroswrites the website Roma Today.
Not unnoticed
According to Roma Today, the two hoped their act would go unnoticed in the crowds around the monumental fountain. But nearby police officers noticed the Dutch and ordered them to get out of the water.
In the classic Italian film La dolce vita (1960) by director Federico Fellini, actress Anita Ekberg bathes in the fountain at night. Since then, tourists have regularly tried to repeat the swimming of Ekberg, much to the chagrin of the Roman city council.
