Temple of Hera, Mon Repos, Ancient Greek temple ruins in Mon Repos, Corfu, Greece.

The Temple of Hera stands on Analipsis Hill within the Mon Repos estate, featuring large terracotta sculptures and Doric column capitals.

Built around 610 BC, the temple underwent reconstruction in the 4th century BC after a fire destroyed the original structure in the 5th century BC.

The temple contained decorative roof elements depicting lions, gorgoneions, and Daidala maidens, reflecting Mediterranean mythological traditions of the period.

Visitors can examine recovered artifacts from the temple site at the Archaeological Museum of Corfu, located in the city center.

The Digital Archaic Heraion Project creates three-dimensional virtual models of the temple using discovered architectural fragments.
