Temple of Romulus in Rome
Temple of Romulus in Rome, dedicated to the son of Maxentius in 309 CE. Originally, this small round temple was a place of worship for Jupiter Stator. The building is well-preserved due to the fact that it was used in later times as a vestibule for the Church of Saints Cosmas and Damian.
The temple is located at the Forum Romanum, next to the Temple of Antoninus and Faustina. After Maxentius’ death, Constantine I restored the shrine to a place of worship for Jupiter.
An extremely interesting part of the building is its entrance door, made of bronze, reflecting the atmosphere of the place.
