Pantheon
Latest update: 26 February 2022
The Pantheon in Rome is one of the most important buildings that still survive from the period of the Roman Empire. Constructed as a Roman temple around 125 AD during the period of rule by the Emperor Hadrian, it was later converted into a church.
Even during modern times, architects study the Pantheon for the way in which its stone dome and oculus could have been produced. |
