Temple of Juno Regina, Roman temple on Aventine Hill, Rome, Italy
The Temple of Juno Regina stands on the upper section of the clivus Publicius, featuring architectural elements from the ancient Roman period.
Marcus Furius Camillus ordered the construction of this temple in 396 BCE following his victory over the city of Veii.
The temple contained a wooden statue of the goddess Juno, transferred from Veii, which received offerings and sacrifices from Roman citizens.
The remains of the temple can be accessed through paths leading up the Aventine Hill, near the current Santa Sabina basilica.
Two inscriptions discovered at Santa Sabina basilica document a lustral procession from 207 BCE connected to the temple.
