Sactuary of Isis and Magna Mater

The archaeological complex contains two main interior chambers surrounded by smaller rooms, with a central water well used for religious ceremonies.

The sanctuary was constructed during the Flavian dynasty in the late first century CE and remained active until the third century CE.

The temple demonstrates the fusion of Egyptian and Oriental religious practices through offerings of fruits, grains, and animal sacrifices on dedicated altars.

The site opens Monday through Saturday from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with free admission and wheelchair accessibility via the Römerpassage entrance.

Excavations revealed over 300 oil lamps, lead curse tablets, voodoo dolls, and bronze figurines including Mercury holding a money bag.
