Temple of Saturn

#romanforum One of the most iconic ruins in the Roman Forum, the Temple of Saturn is a symbol of Rome’s ancient glory. Originally built in 497 BC, it was dedicated to Saturn, the god of wealth and agriculture. Though only eight towering columns remain, they are an impressive sight against the Forum’s backdrop. This temple once housed Rome’s state treasury, adding to its historical significance. Visiting at sunset offers a particularly stunning view as the columns glow in golden light. It’s a favorite spot for photographers and history lovers, capturing the essence of ancient Rome’s architectural brilliance. Absolutely worth visiting!
