Neoclassical Temple, Neoclassical pavilion in Royal Gardens, Monza, Italy
The Neoclassical Temple features white stone columns and pediments within the Royal Gardens of the Palace of Monza, standing near a small lake.
Maria Theresa of Austria commissioned architect Giuseppe Piermarini to construct this temple, which opened its doors to the public in 1783.
The temple represents the architectural principles of the late 18th century through its symmetrical design and classical proportions inspired by ancient Greek structures.
Visitors can access the temple during regular park hours while exploring the extensive grounds of the Royal Gardens of Monza Palace.
The structure earned the nickname Swan Lake Temple due to its location near a water feature that historically housed these graceful birds.
