Temple of Victory, Ancient Greek temple in Termini Imerese, Italy.
The Temple of Victory stands on a hill overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, featuring typical Doric architectural elements with remaining stone foundations and columns.
The temple construction followed the Greek victory against Carthaginian forces at the Battle of Himera in 480 BC, under the command of Gelon of Syracuse.
The temple served as a sanctuary dedicated to Athena, reflecting the Greek tradition of building monuments to commemorate military achievements and honor deities.
Visitors can access the archaeological site through the museum at the base of the hill, which provides guided tours and historical information about the temple.
The temple structure was built using local limestone blocks, with specific construction techniques that enabled its survival through multiple centuries.
