Piazza della Rotonda - The name of Piazza della Rotonda comes from the renowned circular monument it hosts, the Pantheon, which is the best-preserved ancient Roman monument. This preservation is largely due to the donation by Byzantine Emperor Phocas to Pope Boniface IV in 609, leading to its conversion into a church named “S. Maria ad Martyres” (609 AD).

visit to the Pantheon The iconic structure, of the Pantheon originally commissioned by Marcus Agrippa in 27 BC and subsequently rebuilt by Emperor Hadrian around 126 AD, is a temple dedicated to all the gods of Roman mythology. What distinguishes the Pantheon is its awe-inspiring dome, which remains one of the largest unreinforced concrete domes in the world. Its perfect symmetry and harmonious proportions exemplify the architectural precision of the Romans. The dome’s crowning achievement is the oculus, a circular opening at its apex that bathes the interior in ethereal light, casting a dynamic interplay of light and shadow throughout the day. The Pantheon’s enduring significance transcends its architectural marvel. It has been repurposed over the centuries, transforming from a pagan temple to a Christian church.
