Temple of Apollo, Roman temple ruins in Pompeii, Italy
The Temple of Apollo features a rectangular layout with 48 Ionic columns surrounding the central podium and steps leading to the main sanctuary.
Built in 120 BC, this religious complex underwent reconstruction after the 62 AD earthquake, though repairs remained unfinished during the Vesuvius eruption.
The temple served as the primary religious center in Pompeii, combining Greek architectural elements with Roman religious practices in its design and functions.
Visitors can access the temple ruins through the main archaeological site of Pompeii, with the structure located near the northern section of the Forum.
The temple walls contain the mensa ponderaria, a table displaying official measurement standards used to verify merchant transactions in ancient Pompeii.
