Temple of Antoninus and Faustina

#romanforum The Temple of Antoninus and Faustina is a fascinating blend of ancient and medieval history. Built in 141 AD by Emperor Antoninus Pius in honor of his wife Faustina, it was later converted into the Church of San Lorenzo in Miranda. The temple’s well-preserved façade, with its towering Corinthian columns, stands in stark contrast to the church’s medieval additions. This mix of eras makes it one of the most visually interesting structures in the Forum. It’s a perfect spot for those who appreciate how history evolves over time, blending the grandeur of Rome’s past with its later Christian influences.
