La fontana di Diana è una fontana monumentale del 1907 opera di Giulio Moschetti, con la collaborazione del figlio scultore Mario Moschetti, sita in Piazza Archimede a Siracusa.

La costruzione di una fontana fu voluta dal Comune di Siracusa a seguito della creazione di Piazza Archimede nel 1878. La scelta di commissionare l'opera allo scultore Giulio Moschetti avvenne dopo l'ottimo risultato ottenuto con la creazione della Fontana di Proserpina a Catania.
Con delibera del 1º febbraio 1906 il Consiglio Comunale commissionò l'opera dopo la presentazione del bozzetto preparatorio. L'opera verrà eseguita in dieci mesi, tra il 1906 e il 1907 per la cifra di L. 19.000.
