Temple of the Sibyl, Roman temple on the Acropolis in Tivoli, Italy.

The Temple of the Sibyl displays a circular design with stone columns surrounding an inner sanctuary, demonstrating early Roman concrete construction methods.

Construction of the temple occurred in the second century BCE, during a period when Tivoli, then known as Tibur, served as a retreat for wealthy Romans.

The temple merged prophetic traditions with Roman religious practices, becoming a central location where people sought guidance through oracular predictions.

Visitors can explore the archaeological site alongside other Roman structures in Tivoli, accessing the temple grounds throughout the regular opening hours.

The temple structure later housed a church dedicated to Saint George, with the first documented mention of this transformation dating to 978 CE.
